Abstract (EN): Pharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences embrace a series of different disciplines. Pharmacy practice has been de-fined as the scientific discipline that studies the different aspects of the practice of pharmacy and its impact on health care systems, medicine use, and patient care. Thus, pharmacy practice studies embrace both clinical phar-macy and social pharmacy elements. Like any other scientific discipline, clinical and social pharmacy practice dis-seminates research findings using scientific journals. Clinical pharmacy and social pharmacy journal editors have a role in promoting the discipline by enhancing the quality of the articles published. As has occurred in other health care areas (i.e., medicine and nursing), a group of clinical and social pharmacy practice journal editors gathered in Granada, Spain to discuss how journals could contribute to strengthening pharmacy practice as a dis-cipline. The result of that meeting was compiled in these Granada Statements, which comprise 18 recommenda-tions gathered into six topics: the appropriate use of terminology, impactful abstracts, the required peer reviews, journal scattering, more effective and wiser use of journal and article performance metrics, and authors' selection of the most appropriate pharmacy practice journal to submit their work. & COPY; 2023 The Author(s) Published by Elsevier Inc, Springer Nature, Brazilian Society of Hospital Pharmacy and Health Services, Elsevier Inc, Royal Phar-maceutical Society, Biomedcentral, Sociedad Espanola de Farmacia Hospitalaria (S.E.F.H), Pharmaceutical Care Espana Foundation, European Association of Hospital Pharmacists, Faculty of Pharmacy & COPY; 2023 The Author(s) Published by Elsevier Inc, Springer Nature, Brazilian Society of Hospital Pharmacy and Health Services, Elsevier Inc, Royal Pharmaceutical Society, Biomedcentral, Sociedad Espanola de Farmacia Hospitalaria (S.
