  • Pharmaceutical care is an essential component of the healthcare system; however, people with disabilities face multiple barriers to receiving appropriate care in community pharmacies. In Peru, evidence regarding these barriers from the direct perspective of people with disabilities remains limited.

  • The objective of this study is to identify and characterize the barriers to care encountered by people with disabilities in community pharmacies in Metropolitan Lima in 2026.
