[india-drug] Response to Pooled pharmaceutical procurement

[Veerubhotla Bhava <pharmedtradenews@lycos.com>]

Dear I drug participants,

Where have all the qualified pharmacists as per international norms 
Gone? Are they busy in serving humanity outside India or in to
production and education . 

The number of pharmacists in community pharmacy practice in 
india are very few. Even a guy  who has a diploma in pharmacy works
outside and gets royalty from medical shop owner every month. 

When are we going to remove sub standard drugs from chemist shelves 
or fight spurious drugs. When are our pharmacists able to prevent 
diseases like AIDS OR TB.  

Sorry if my anguish hurts any one. I am trying 
to light a small lamp and work towards transformation of retail 
chemists. We have to work towards in introducing India terms like at
retail chemist level product recall, pharmacovigilance and
pharmaceutical service. Forget about patient education when we have not
tried educating retail chemist. I invite all those friends who agree or
care about my outburst, to guide in me in essential voyage of improving
standards at home.


with regards to all
