Abstract

To What Level Can Guided Self-study Complement or Replace Interactive Training?

In the last decade, a clear change of duties has taken place within community and hospital pharmacy. The "white coat period”, in which the pharmacist would rush diligently from behind the counter to give the patient his self-prepared chest syrup in time, is clearly over. The increasingly demanding patient and the ever more important range of self—care products inside the pharmacy is, whether we like it or not, pushing us in the direction of medicines consultants and health advisors.
