That's how they fabricate lies to score cheap public sympathy points. Dr Paul Orhi is a pharmacologist. They ignore the truth and be spewing all kinds of falsehood. When patient dies or does not get better, they will hide behind doctor and say na your patient. How many JOHESU get sued for negligence? Yet they want to share glory in "making the patient better". Arrant nonsense, me wey go operate abdominal gunshot late into the next day and must report 8am the next morning for ward rounds while they lumber home at that time to go and sleep as their SHIFT done end. We sometimes go days without getting more than 3-4 hrs sleep and you're still on call. When the surgeon leaves a gauze in the abdomen, why are scrub nurses whose job it is to do the swab count never called to panels? 1 Like |

So their is no pharmacist that chose pharmacy as a first choice? your brain is really not working. it's a pity. one thing I know, and is also visible to the blind is that NAFDAC fare better under Akunyili(a pharmacist) than under Paul orhili( a medical doctor).

Stephaustin: You are not a doctor, nor a medical student as you claimed, that is why you have no idea that all the roles you highlighted up there; as not befitting to a pharmacist, actually, are the roles of a modern pharmacist as taught in pharmaceutical technology in 200l pharmacy school. Ignorance is doing you a strong thing. Nafdac chair is solely the role of a pharmacist. Do Google Search on pharmacist roles. Doctors have no place on nafdac, if you need it, go to pharmacy school. |

asuustrike2009: Really? So a doctor prescribing Codeine or Tramadol for someone in pain who needs it is what will make the person abuse the drug? So immediately a person puts Tramadol in his mouth he becomes addicted to it? That's like saying that beer parlors are responsible for alcoholism, drunk driving and accidents resulting from driving under the influence of alcohol. There are processes by which addiction occurs. And medically, there are drugs generally known as drugs of addiction or drugs of abuse. Before a drug of addiction/abuse is prescribed by a doctor, he weighs the risks against the benefits. For example, a patient had an accident and is in pain but he also has peptic ulcer. You can't give him ibuprofen or Diclofenac or any other NSAID because they will worsen his ulcer. You have to resort to giving him non-NSAID analgesics such as Tramadol. Sometimes you might have to move up to Codeine and even Morphine. And most non-NSAID analgesics are addictive because of how they interact with their receptors in the body. But every doctor is aware of this addictive nature of these drugs and is always cautious when prescribing them. First, If this OP who is masquerading as a Know-it-all pharmacist knows anything about the pharmacdynamics and pharmacokinetics of opioid and non-opioid analgesics, he wouldn't have created this post. Secondly, he is not blaming his fellow roadside pharmacists and chemists that sell these drugs to these youths without prescription. He is not blaming them because he knows that they are the real culprits. They are the ones that hand these drugs out to these youths even when they don't come with a doctor's prescription because they believe they know more than the doctor so dispensing drugs with prescription is beneath them. But he will blame the doctor. That's what we see in the health sector. If everything goes well, everyone will collect the glory and may not even remember the role the doctor played. But once something goes wrong, everybody will blame the doctor. So that is it. You don't blame bars and beer parlors for alcoholism. The solution is for pharmacists to stop dispensing drugs of addiction/abuse without doctor's prescription. But they will not hear it. Tomorrow they will still come and blame the doctor. 2 Likes |

ruffhandu: The bolded part of this your post makes no sense. The doctor is not heading other professions. He is heading one profession. Laboratory Science is not a profession. Nursing is not a profession, etc. They are all branches of the same profession: health/medical profession. And the doctor is at the head of that profession. Every professional working in a hospital is a health professional and their profession is the health profession. And the head of the health profession is THE DOCTOR The Engineer and the engineering technician are all in the same profession. Not separate professions. And the engineer is at the head of that profession. In the legal profession, the lawyers and judges are at the head. In the academic profession, professors are at the head. It goes on and on. Why are you guys bent on upending things just to massage your egos? You guys hate doctors but yet all of you answer doctors in your informal circles. I have not seen any one of you that doesn't answer when called "doctor". All of you. Even cleaners. Yet, all of you hate doctors. What exactly is wrong with you people? 1 Like |

nobilis:It's so sad that you didn't read the article very well as revealed by your falsehood It's either you are not a health practitioner or you believe and still recycling the lie they told you in Nigerian Medical schools. Firstly,it is not only a medical doctor that prescribes. Pharmacists can prescribe too. Secondly,all medications are produced by Pharmacists for the users not for the prescriber unless the prescriber doubles as the user. Pharmacists are the drug experts. Thirdly,apart from the prescription medications,the Pharmacist doesn't need to request for a prescription form to counsel and dispense other medications. Incidentally,there are more non prescription drugs than prescription drugs.So,the prescription form is only needed for a fraction of medicines NOT ALL MEDICINES. Fourthly,prescription form is not an order. It is a request made for the dispensing of medications and subject to the professional evaluation of the Pharmacist.In releasing the medications,the Pharmacist believes a professional apart from him/her has evaluated the user as well. The Pharmacist has a professional duty to reject prescriptions once he's not convinced. Finally,boss of a Pharmacist is another senior Pharmacist. Any other person forming boss is a counterfeit and receiving orders from such individuals is ultra vires 3 Likes |

Whether it is Water Resources or Fire Resources, in the academic profession, the professor is at the head.

Wealthandjobs: LOL. First of all, you quoted the wrong post to say this your rubbish. See how you are just feeding yourself and your followers with deliberate misinformation. Maybe you need to go and consult your pharmacy professors in school. In Nigeria, pharmacists are not allowed to prescribe medications. Only doctors are allowed to prescribe medications. You can carry your head and hit it on the wall as many times as you please. That is how it is. You've not finished doing your own job and duty and you're trying to claim one of the duties of doctors. Tomorrow you guys will say doctors are suppressing you when it is obvious that you guys are the ones overstepping your boundaries. 2 Likes |
