CHEMIST’S EXPERIENCE:

In the chemist's management we need to consider some important aspects.

The chemist's can sell medicines that expire in less than three months. To avoid medicine expiration, the chemist's can send them back to the supplier if the expiration date is too close. Expired medicines need to be thrown away in particular bins that you can find in the chemist's. Firstly, the customer needs to remove the package, because it can't be disposed of with the medicines. From now on, medicines disposal can follow different procedures. One of those is bringing them to the Amiat, so that they can be disposed of  in the right way.

Here is a dedicated department where customers with the help of the pharmacist measure their blood sugar and other parameters.

In this department, pressure controls are also carried out with a professional machine, which can also be used autonomously without the help of the doctor.The measurement is done in total sterility as you take a small amount of blood and it could be dangerous to come into contact with certain substances, in addition the meter should be checked monthly. Each pharmacy has its own disposition of drugs. The products inside the pharmacy can be arranged and organized by pharmaceutical form if they are cosmetic medical devices or medicines. The arrangement in alphabetical order is important to facilitate the search for the drug you are looking for. At the chemist's there is a promotional day where some people of some companies come to the chemist's to present new medicines.

WAREHOUSE:

The warehouse is the heart of the pharmacy. The following competences are very important. During the working period we have been explain that our law established that there are some specific medicines that have absolutely to be present on the chemist's shelves. Every drug is reported and loaded. The storekeeper must always check the expiry of the drugs, put the DPC in its place. The storekeeper labels the products that will go on sale. All orders must be uploaded to the computer and all drugs must be put in their place. The storekeeper must take into account suspended drugs that will be placed in the appropriate shelf.

LABORATORY:

One of the activities conducted at the chemist's was the laboratory where everyday we set up galenical preparations.

Galenicals are drugs preparations from chemical and auxiliary agents, prepared by the chemist's in the chemist’s laboratory.

Some common preparations are those used to treat dermatitis, psoriasis and skin irritation. In this video we are preparing a solution of minoxidil useful to limit hairloss.
