Patient-centered pharmaceutical care should not only emphasize the appropriate selection and use of medicines but also consider patients’ psychological, social, and spiritual dimensions, including their personal beliefs and values. Differences in religious backgrounds, cultural values, and perceptions of health may influence communication, treatment acceptance, and relationships between patients and pharmacy professionals. This article aims to analyze the relevance of the biopsychosocial-spiritual approach to pharmaceutical care and identify the roles of empathy, therapeutic communication, and respect for patients’ beliefs in supporting holistic care. This study employs a descriptive qualitative literature review, synthesizing scholarly sources on patient-centered care, spirituality and health, pharmaceutical care, and patient safety. The conceptual synthesis indicates that attention to patients’ spiritual dimensions and personal values may strengthen therapeutic relationships, improve the relevance of medication counseling, and support more participatory decision-making. Its implementation requires empathetic communication, respect for patient autonomy, confidentiality, and a commitment to medication safety and appropriate treatment. Therefore, integrating the biopsychosocial-spiritual perspective may enrich pharmaceutical care by promoting a more humane, ethical, and patient-oriented approach that responds to patients’ individual needs.
