E-drug: Public Health Pharmacy (cont) --------------------------------------------- Dear E- druggers, While I do not teach undergraduate pharmacy students, I do teach Australian public health students about medicinal drug policy and related topics. Assuring equitable access to necessary drugs is a key issue for all countries (and WHO) and an overview of appropriate policies to achieve this end would hopefully form a core part of "public health pharmacy". Another key topic would be the role of the pharmacist in containing the increasing public health problem of antibiotic resistant micro-organisms. Some publicly available teaching material on these topics can be found at: [http://www.pitt.edu/~super1/lecture/lec1811/index.htm](http://www.pitt.edu/~super1/lecture/lec1811/index.htm) Cheers Ken Dr. Ken Harvey Board Member, Therapeutic Guidelines Ltd.
