PHARMACY- The Heart Of The Health Profession. by Samgreguc(m): 10:41am On Dec 14, 2013 |
Pharmacy, according to the Oxford dictionary is: a shop/store, or part of one, that sells medicines and drugs; a place in a hospital where medicines are prepared; the study of how to prepare medicines and drugs. Talking about the heart in this context, it simply means the most important part of something. Yes, a Doctor does the diagnoses but without using the Pharmacy, his/her diagnoses if of no use; the Nurse also does his/her nursing but, in almost all cases makes use of the Pharmacy product; the Pathologist(Dr.)/lab. Scientist carries out his/her test and without gracing the Pharmacy, no meaningful progress is done on health; and so also to others. The Pharmacist produces the drugs/medicines which is very useful in the health profession. Take away the Pharmacy in the hospital and other health allied entity and the it will be as good as a consultancy arena. Above all, the various health professionals must join hands to make a meaningful progress. Every proffession is useful #peace 3 Likes |

Brother, if pharmacists decides to go on strike too, e go bad oooo. Buh our 'oju anu' dey kill us. We've been far too undermined in this country. Imagine all community pharmacies been closed, hospital pharmacies closed too, the worst part, we close down the industries too, close down the drug distribution channels at Idumota, Lagos Island and Ilupeju(for a start). We'll leave them to the mercy of the Igbo(fake) boys.. It won't be fair, as more lives will be lost than u can think, but then maybe Nigerians will begin to value pharmacists. 4 Likes |

olatunji21:The person who sold the drug was definitely one of those mere salesgirls and that's another huge problem when it comes to pharmacies. It's ur right to av a pharmacist attend to u whenever u step in. Its ur right to wait or ask for his phone number when he is not around. Moreover, what drug was she given? 1 Like |

Re: PHARMACY- The Heart Of The Health Profession. by caukerzee(m): 5:37pm On Dec 28, 2013 |
Samgreguc:Not all. Just saying this because most Nigerians do not know the use of pharmacist. If you ask the average Nigerian who a pharmacist is, he'll tell you it's someone who sells drugs. So for a case this serious, it's advisable one sees a doctor first. Not it all cases of course. |

Samgreguc: that stomach pain could be due to peptic ulcer, intestinal colic, typhoid perforation, biliary colic, panceatitis, appendicitis, merckel's diverticulitis, hepatitis, splenic rupture, or any cause of peritonitis......... In fact, the list is endless!!! Thats why you have to see a doctor first....... 1 Like |

That's true sir, but as a matter of urgency and discomfort, antispasmodic drugs or buscopan could be given to such patient on sight. Secnidazole is usually given too, tho I don't know the modus operandi yet. Considering the availability of pharmacists and the otherwise for doctors( I dispensed for a woman last week at 6pm and she said she had been in the hospital since 9am). Now tell me how such patient would be able to cope when undergoing a traumatic and painful illness. The pharmacist is the only health professional u don't need an appointment to see, u don't pay to see him either. The most easily accessible healthcare professional they say, plus he's also trained and knows when to refer u to a physician. I've seen pharmacists do on-sight referral, its no biggie. There's enough space in the sky for us all to soar, God's blessings. 2 Likes |
