Alabukun contains aspirin and caffeine and panadol extra acetaminophen(paracetamol) and caffeine.. Caffeine is a stimulant and his daily intake should amount to over a 100mg so he might already be dependent on it and getting him off it won't come easy.. You should ask him what he's taking the meds for as he might need this meds for chronic conditions like arthritis. Eitherway taking the two meds might not be necessary but then u also won't be able to evaluate if either will be effective. Chronic use of NSAIDs such as aspirin can cause ulcer so you should present him with the facts but not without asking the necessary questions first..

Lol. You need to see the bigger picture.. Its all intertwined. Knowing one w/o the other is not knowing either. You could end up anywhere so you need to be equipped with your pharmaceutical chemistry, clinicals and pharmacognosy. Even in community pharmacy practise there are lot of things u can tell about a drug by merely looking at its structure such as its instability profile and proper storage. You could find yourself in nafdac analysing drugs and a sound knowledge of your pharmaceutical chemistry will suffice. There are universities in india that deal purely with phytopharmaceuticals to show you how relevant your pharmacognosy is. You can't just be a "pharmaceutics pharmacist" or a "clinical pharmacist". You have to be an all rounder.
Thank you sir

Truth is, we are suffering from not having enough pharmacists and pressure has been on PCN to accredit more pharmacy schools. Although it's hard, pharmacy schools don't just prop up the way medical schools do. It's a more sensitive calling as a mistake could claim thousands of lives. Happy new year!
