Social Pharmacy

By Heena Yunus Maniyar, Utkarsh Ravindra Mandage, Dr. Anuradha Singh & Khushali Rajendra Patil

Social Pharmacy is a young subject with an old purpose: to remind the pharmacy profession that medicines exist for people, and that people live in families, communities and a country whose conditions shape their health. For a first-year Diploma in Pharmacy student, fresh from school and meeting words like "epidemiology," "determinants of health" and "pharmacovigilance" for the very first time, this subject is the doorway into thinking like a health professional rather than only a dispenser of products.
