Consider the financial impact


I REFER to the comments made by the learned deputy dean, School of Pharmacy, KPJ University College in “Don’t fear Pharmacy Bill” (The Star, April 25).

In general, I am in agreement with most of the comments made by my esteemed apothecary counterpart. His comments about the singularity and expertise of pharmacists with regards to the knowledge of “poisons and medications” could not be more accurate. After all, this is a profession which has dedicated itself to the art and science of remedial compounds. It is a “no-contest” situation, with pharmacists deserving to be held in high regard for their expertise in remedial compounds.
