Ivermectin disappearing from our shelves, pharmacists raise alarm as demand for COVID-19 ‘wonder drug’ soars
He said, “Pharmacists must also embrace the lessons learnt during the pandemic, especially in the area of digital knowledge. The survival of pharmacists and pharmacies depends largely on how pharmacy practitioners leverage technology for growth. “The use of some digital apps aided communication of pharmacists with clients tremendously in the heat of the COVID-19 lockdown when physical meetings were restricted; some of the apps could be appropriately adapted and adopted by practitioners.”
He stressed the need for the adoption of technological innovations in the logistics and supply chain of medicines, adding that it would help address the problem of uncoordinated drug distribution channels in many African countries. Marfo also urged the African Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agencies and Academic Institutions to ensure that the training of pharmacy students and practitioners was in tandem with current and appropriate technological innovations.All rights reserved.
