E-DRUG: Indian parliamentary probe damns drug regulation (2)
----------------------------------------------------
The report by Dr. Talwar is shocking . But all these raises a fundamental question. Should not the profession of pharmacy in India be improved from the present choatic state at least now? Even other developing countries have graduate in pharmacy emphasising on clinical /adverse reactions, and the profession of pharmacy is much better than in India. It is high time that Medical profession also view and see pharmacist as a support group rather than a subordinate level only to store and sell medicines.
