The curse of pharmacists is the fact that you can work in a lot of places. It makes decision making very slow and makes it difficult to stick long enough to one path. Always thinking if there might be something better elsewhere

This is why most of these patients present late with complications

If you remove community pharmacists from Nigeria’s healthcare system for one week, you’ll immediately see how much silent clinical work they’ve been doing all along. For many Nigerians, the pharmacist is the first consultation, the first medicine review, the first counselling point, and sometimes the first referral. Yet we still treat them like mere shopkeepers. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Alex Otti says that he wants to remove Abia State from the National Grid completely, "even though it's a PRIVATE enterprise" and many Nigerians are busy cheering him and his idea like this is something truly positive. Are we really a serious people at all? Imagine the entire electricity of a state being owned and controlled by private enterprise(s), doesn't this leave the people at the mercy of the firm? Or you forget that electricity is a basic amenity that should be provided by the govt if we have serious leaders? Has privatizing anything ever benefitted the masses in this country? Take the only working refinery for example, today we are at the mercy of Dangote, he can increase and reduce prices at any time, and we have no choice because we are dependent on that one refinery that is privately owned. If Abia goes fully private, consumers will most definitely pay more, because there's a 99% chance the govt won't step in to regulate in the long run, and of course, it's private so the goal is to make profit whichever way neccesary. Abia State govt gets allocations, but wants to privatize electricity. The problem with many Nigerians is that once someone is put on a pedestal, logical thinking automatically goes off the window.

Why is everyone competing with doctors? What happens to facing your lane? When did pharmacist start consulting and managing patients? Very soon they'd start performing surgeries in the pharmacy.

Post like this is why, in every hospital I've ever worked in Nigeria, I always insist on one very important change, viz: There must be an A&E pharmacy positioned in such a way that the dispensary window looks directly into the emergency so that pharmacists can see in real-time what emergency situations mean and look like because there is no way a pharmacist who understands how an emergency situation can get posts this
Pharm. Billy-young@GaliBillyyoung

Should pharmacists start posting the kind of things they see too? Take a look at this prescription please. No pharmacist will dispense these medications, quote me anywhere. It's from the Emergency pediatric unit. PS: the baby's age and or weight was not even written.

This won’t hit you until you carry your child to the hospital and return home with silence instead of laughter, because someone who shouldn’t be handling that case made a fatal error. Preparation isn’t optional. Competence isn’t a luxury. Lives depend on it.

Healthcare has evolved, your perspective hasn't. Saying we “can’t tell minor from major illness” ignores the entire concept of triaging , something pharmacists are specifically trained to do to support the healthcare system, not replace it.
Dr. Mary@Oluwamidunsin

When it comes to hospital We have the primary health centre We have the state hospitals We have the federal/tertiary hospitals We have the private hospitals The role of pharmacist in all this is to sell medications and refill medications It’s not to do clinical consultations and drug prescription. And you can’t tell if it’s a minor illness or major illness. That’s where clinicians comes in, they rule out, ask for tests to confirm diagnosis, before the give medication to treat

@MrWisdomOgbonna @Oluwamidunsin Why waste your time on someone based in US who doesn't know we have prescribing pharmacist in US and other countries, Do you think she actually knows the scope of pharmacist anywhere including Nigeria?

Pharm. Billy-young@GaliBillyyoung

Firstly, what's the ratio of doctors to patients in Nigeria presently? If all patients were to go to the hospital directly for every illness, would they be attended to on time? I'm not justifying the fact that some pharmacists overdo, it doesn't take away the fact that every pharmacist has the clinical knowledge to consult on minor illnesses and treat as appropriate and also to refer where appropriately. If we're to come online and say all the malpractices and unethical practices done by other professionals, the Internet wouldn't contain us.

@Oluwamidunsin @aqu17a @Shaxdon The convo has gone beyond the Nigerian context reason I have seen people in different countries stating what's obtainable in their region. Saying "Pharmacist can't prescribe" is quite a stretch and a generalization.

This is NOT A PRESCRIPTION. This is most likely an admitted px, that is being co-managed with consultants and all… They needed them to go buy it to keep in the ward. The prescription is in the consultation book. In a sane clime, most of these medications are available at the emergency unit. But in Nigeria that they will have to walk kilometers to buy it. The doctor wants them to buy and keep. Like you said that is an Emergency! Dispense the medication bro…

@HubWendy This shouldn’t be a turf war, patient care comes first. Pharmacists and doctors complement each other, not compete. The real problem is unqualified “roadside chemists” misrepresenting themselves, not trained professionals. Attacking each other only erodes patient trust.

I find this Pharmacists ând Doctors prescription brouhaha really worrisome. To think some doctor are already atta ck!ng pharmacist directly even down to tagging them incompetent. I know anything goes in this our country ând that’s so pathetic but you should bear in mind that â road side male chemist usually identify as a pharmacist or rather âre usually addressed as a Pharmacist while the female ones are usually tagged Nurses ând when things goes south ând they presented to the hospital, possibly presented late. During clerking, these patients end up telling their doctors, I have been getting treatment from one Pharmacist or Nurse in my street for 2 years now before it became worse, when the person is neither a Pharmacist or â Nurse. Some doctors will go with this information without further investigation. Please, let’s be guided, ând remember, you can always air your opinion without being destructi ve.

@Doprime @Oluwamidunsin Go cry yourself a river. Pharmacist do prescribe. A GP stepping outside their scope to perform surgeries they’re not trained for isn’t bravery,it’s malpractice. When complications happen, it’s not just clinical failure, it’s legal liability, and yes, it can lead to prison.
