Abstract: | Over the past few years the pharmaceutical sector in Malta has evolved significantly. Changes have occurred both in the public and private sector; changes in the community practice of pharmacy, changes in the regulatory framework, in industry, in the marketing of medicines and also in structures within the government sector. Change has therefore also occurred in medicines management and care of patients through medicinals. Patients’ expectations have also changed. All these changes affect the day to day practice of health care professionals, yet it is difficult for most of us to keep up with all that is going on due to the limited time available. However, our lack of knowledge may lead to suboptimal practice, dissemination of incorrect information, with conflicting messages reaching patients, adding to their burden and frustration. |
