Victomolola: Is that mean I'm related to governor or vc? Oau cut off mark, 2011/2012: mbbs= 295; pharm or joe hates you=245 2012/2013: mbbs = 262; pharm or joe hates you 235 2013/2014 mbbs 270.5; pharm or joe hates you 250.5 pre degree 2013/2014 mbbs =80.7; pharm or joe hates you=70.5!!! Who is much brilliant and excellent, tell me?

Don't act like a deluded fellow, we know the governors and VCs handpick MBBS students, don't argue.. It's naija, we all know!!!

FrancisTony:


You sound like an illiterate. Most doctors got admitted through runse.

P.S- I am pretty sure that school like OAU pharmacy cutoff is higher than 30 Universities that offer Medicine.

But, in oau that you used as an example; can you please list the cut-off mark of pharmacy and mbbs from 2009/2010 to 2013/2014 both pre degree and jamb so that we will know who is more brilliant.

The ducks are just Mr knowitall

ARE YOU ASKING ME TO DEBATE OR SUGGEST?? I STILL DON'T GET YA POINT MR OP!!

unilag, sorry, i couldnt separate other faculties

NO.... they were able to con them easily...unlike NMA.... Give them what they deserve.

kenonze:

its a pity, may his soul RIP.
am pretty worried abt this JOHESU.
They should rethink and do the needful.
A nurse (strong supporter of JOHESU) came to my clinic 2nights ago shouting help help help ....doctor doctor ...my brother is dying, help help... I looked at time, it was 2am, I did the needful and the brother got healed .
earlier before now,
this same nurse said she will not work for any private hospital because we cannot pay what govt pays. she so much detest Doctors to the extent that all my colleagues avoids her.
but when the appointed time came she trace my clinic with her "k-leg ".

I thought they know and learnt same things that doctors did in school.
Why couldn't she treat her brother.

Your saving grace is owning up to your ignorance. So you think other paramedicals heading organizations is the main issue here? For your information, doctors want to limit other professionals from being relevant in their own field because they feel others do not deserve it. We all know that in hospitals, doctors are the primary entities, but they should quit making it seem like others are not relevant. Live and let live should be the watchword please.

decode55:

& you're really pained.

Such hate won't get you anywhere dude. If you had channeled this energy you're using to hate on doctors into reading your books & passing jamb, who knows?

Maybe you'd have gotten into med school



But I doubt sha

Your case is obviously congenital

. So do we all need to be a doctor?

I'd rather blame PCN than blame you.. If things were the way it should be. Any strike effected by pharmacists would be comprehensive.. Lock down in hospital pharmacies likewise community and industry. Then we'd see how much impact would be felt.. Lol. Common hatred? This is just a comeback from repression that has gone on for so many years. The tides have changed..[/quote]. Why are you talking about locking up pharmacies wen PSN goes on strike, did u carry any pharmacy on ur head wen u were employed by the hospital, now dat NMA is on strike did dey lock the consulting rooms?

Welcome to the Pharmacy and Pharmacology Portal! The purpose of this page is to organize many of the pharmacology and drug-related articles on Wikipedia, to highlight some of the best articles, and to point out some of the recent activities and developments of WikiProject Pharmacology. Please see our medical disclaimer for cautions about Wikipedia's limitations.

Pharmacology (in Greek: pharmacon (φάρμακον) meaning remedy, and logos (λόγος) meaning science) is the study of how substances interact with living organisms to produce a change in function. If substances have medicinal properties, they are considered pharmaceuticals. The field encompasses mechanisms of drug action, drug composition and properties, interactions, toxicology, therapies, medical applications, and antipathogenic capabilities.

Pharmacy (from the Greek φάρμακον = remedy) is a transitional field between the health sciences and the chemical sciences, as well as the profession charged with ensuring the safe use of medications. Traditionally, pharmacists have compounded and dispensed medications based on prescriptions from physicians. More recently, pharmacy has come to include other services related to patient care, including clinical practice, medication review, and drug information. Some of these new pharmaceutical roles are now mandated by law in various legislatures. Pharmacists, therefore, are drug therapy experts, and the primary health professionals who optimize medication management to produce positive health outcomes.

The field of pharmacy can generally be divided into three main disciplines:

Pharmaceutics concerns on how to convert medication and drugs to suitable drug dosage forms.
Pharmaceutical Sciences includes pharmaceutical chemistry, pharmacognosy, phytochemistry and pharmacology.
Pharmacy practice concerns dispensing medication correctly. In the late 20th century, this field has developed into hospital pharmacy and clinical pharmacy. All of these fields are concentrated on optimizing patient care.
Inside every branch of pharmacy are many specialized branches related to many scientific disciplines. This makes pharmaceuticals related to the majority of pure and applied sciences. For example, medicinal chemistry can be divided into: ADME, bioavailability, chemogenomics, drug design, drug discovery, enzyme inhibition, mechanism of action, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, pharmacology, pharmacophore perception, Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships, and Structure-Activity Relationships.

Biology (including molecular biology and biochemistry), physiology, organic chemistry, microbiology, parasitology, and also botany are all related in some way to the pharmaceutical sciences. Recently, the field of drug discovery and drug design has developed with new technologies invented in other fields, such as bioinformatics, cheminformatics, computational chemistry, genetics, pharmacogenomics, and proteomics.

You know NMA is relevant when like 20 trade unions/professional bodies are ganging up on them.

drered: Its exhausting having to explain over and over again. Here's a comment on another thread I made trying to explain the why's..

Okay. I love your objective stance.
The thing is, those duties you've mentioned in that post, pharmacists do them now. Other health professionals are also doing their jobs. They don't need to be "consultants" in order to do them.

Then another thing I feel u don't understand is that being a specialist is different from being an honorary consultant. Yes; for doctors you must be a specialist before being appointed an honorary consultant but they are not the same thing.

Just like NMA has said, the word "consultant" in a hospital setting describes a particular relationship. That between a patient and his doctor. That is why NMA said there will confusion in the sector when there are many "consultants" around.

Nobody is saying other health professionals shouldn't specialise in their various fields. I, for one, I know that there are many branches in pharmacy, nursing, medical laboratory science and physiotherapy. Nobody is saying they shouldn't become specialists in their specialties. That is one thing you should understand. They are just muddling everything up and turning issues upside down just to favour their goal.

retepmurt: Nothing,i mean absolutely nothing wil happen.As a matter of fact,pharmacists only dispense in our govt hospitals in Nigeria.Drugs are being manufactured by the private pharmaceutical companies.

what do u tink is the role of NAFDAC?

thegeneral84:
Though I don't want to sound callous but the raw truth is " Pharmacists (or any other Allied Medical Profession) going on strike alone would have little or no impact", the main reason for their coming together to form JOHESU in the hope that their impact would be felt then. Your reason for staying together is the "collective hatred" for Doctors. There is no way a common hatred can successfully keep two or more persons together. You can't decide to marry a girl only because you both hate say "saloon cars". Sadly, That is what JOHESU is.

we aint talking about the hospital here but, NAFDAC.

SAPEDRO:
unilag, sorry, i couldnt separate other faculties

then, which course has the highest cut-off mark?

Samgreguc:
Pharmacology isn't Pharmacy. Law doesn't give him good knowledge of Pharmacy.
.
Pharmacology is no where near Pharmacy.

You don't get my point. I am not saying that OAU mbbs cutoff ain't higher that Pharmacy own.

I am pretty sure that the dude ain't an OAU student/graduate.
But, my point is "OAU pharmacy cutoff is higher than some school's Mbbs cuttoff".

Btw, some Mbbs student entered through runse i.e Vc list and so many more.

Not all pharmacy student are Medical doctor wannabee i.e Not all wanted to study Medicine at first.

Atleast, highest in UI p.jamb for Pharmacy was 78 while Medicine(83) and Pharmacy cutoff was 60 while Mbbs was 70. She even beat Medicine cutoff handsdown.

Some Pharmacy student never liked Medicine.

thepathologist:

can u allow pharmacy technicians with more than 20yr experience to head pharmacy dept? can u allow pharmaceutical physcians to head pharm. industries? pharmacists should lead industries not dragging hospital leadership with doctors. pharmacy is a nice profession.i do not understand while you join hands with drivers and co to fight doctors.

if the law permits it and if the pharm tech has the right qualification, why not? Its about law, qualifications and competence.

what i'm saying is that, averagely, mbbs has the best students in any school in nigeria!!! Do you agree or we should continue our argument?

adeoladrg:

Don't act like a deluded fellow, we know the governors and VCs handpick MBBS students, don't argue.. It's naija, we all know!!!

What will I not read in nairaland. You all know what?

As I said previously on another thread there was a time when the vc in my school packed many students into medicine the first hurdle was basic sciences 100L that cut the class into two.

The moral of the story its not who starts the race but who gets to the finish line.

Victomolola: what i'm saying is that, averagely, mbbs has the best students in any school in nigeria!!! Do you agree or we should continue our argument?

I agree when it comes to getting admission.

But when IN, I disagree because both course is entirely different thing.

Pharmacy deals with lotta Chemistry while Mbbs is biology of the body etcetra.

CircleOfWilis: I have a feeling that man knows pharmacy beta than most of u..

I have studied your post on this site, and each time , I wonder how u passed through medical school. Ur are not refined.

If you must know, she has a degree in pharmacy. The others are post graduate degrees. Okay?

nobilis:

The DG of NAFDAC, Dr Paul Orhii is a pharmacologist. The former DG of NAFDAC, Late Prof Dora Akunyili was also a pharmacologist and a toxicologist.

So what exactly is your headache?

They aint in same shoes comparing docs to pharmacist common
Anyways click on my signature to make cool cash

IamChiboi: If you must know, she has a degree in pharmacy. The others are post graduate degrees. Okay?

Has anyone prevented you or other pharmacists from getting a postgraduate medical degree so that you can head hospitals? NMA is not preventing that. I'm very sure.

Victomolola: Is that mean I'm related to governor or vc? Oau cut off mark, 2011/2012: mbbs= 295; pharm or joe hates you=245 2012/2013: mbbs = 262; pharm or joe hates you 235 2013/2014 mbbs 270.5; pharm or joe hates you 250.5 pre degree 2013/2014 mbbs =80.7; pharm or joe hates you=70.5!!! Who is much brilliant and excellent, tell me?

you are neither brilliant nor excellent. Why? Cos If you are, ur dumbb brain will reason dat no two courses can have the same cut off points given that the NUMBER of APPLICANTS and REQUIRED STUDENTS DIFFERS. In OAU, during my set, about 11,000 students chosed medicine in JAMB compare dat to about 2000 of pharmacy. Also 100 was admitted from all angles (pd,JAMB, man knw man etc) for medicine while close to 140 for pharmacy. I have given u enough clues for the quantitative reasoning and analysis. Get your arsse down and think. Ooooh, what about those withdrawn mid way into medical school? Even after acing JAMB? Guess JAMB score isn't a yardstick afterall. You lots are dumbbb. The earlier u admit, the better.

nouveaux: if the law permits it and if the pharm tech has the right qualification, why not? Its about law, qualifications and competence.

Dia is God oh.
