Your Role as Pharmacist
« on: February 26, 2007, 02:31:26 PM »
Pharmacists play a vital role in the health care system through the medicine and information they provide.

While responsibilities vary among the different areas of pharmacy practice, the bottom line is that pharmacists help patients get well. Pharmacist responsibilities include a range of care for patients, from dispensing medications to monitoring patient health and progress to maximize their response to the medication. Pharmacists also educate consumers and patients on the use of prescriptions and over-the-counter medications, and advise physicians, nurses, and other health professionals on drug decisions. Pharmacists also provide expertise about the composition of drugs, including their chemical, biological, and physical properties and their manufacture and use. They ensure drug purity and strength and make sure that drugs do not interact in a harmful way. Pharmacists are drug experts ultimately concerned about their patients' health and wellness.

Dear admin,
The problem is we Somali people don't  know the real role of pharmacist.
Usually we are known us those who only able to hand out the medications asked by the buyer.
So I will try my best to explain more and more in this forum what real pharmacist is? :-*
Thank you all
Pharmacist
