  • Bachelor of Pharmacy
    Study plan Bachelor of Pharmacy Programme description Programme contents The Bachelor in Pharmacy is a professional degree which enables the candidate to apply for authorization as a pharmacist in some of the Nordic countries (Norway, Sweden and Finland). The basis of pharmacy practice involves knowledge about the structure, characteristics, effects, use and production of pharmaceuticals. The terms drug information, drug distribution and pharmaceutical production are important parts of the pharmacist’s professional knowledge. Medical, chemical, pharmaceutical and social scientific topics are integrated in the practice of pharmacy. Work including the dispensing of drugs and guidance in the use of drugs requires basic theoretic knowledge from these various fields of study. Practical application of this specialist knowledge contributes to appropriate problem solving in collaboration with patients, colleagues and other partners. Most pharmacists get a job working in a pharmacy. Pharmacies are contributors to the health service in Norway. They are local professional environments with knowledge about pharmaceuticals and are there to promote rational drug use. The pharmacist's duties require contact and cooperation with patients, physicians, dentists, veterinarians, home-based services and hospitals/nursing homes, amongst others. Good communication skills are a necessary part of the total professional competence associated with being a pharmacist. These skills are applied when in contact with patients and other health care groups. The programme demands a good level of both written and oral Norwegian. A bachelor candidate in pharmacy needs to have the knowledge, skills and attitudes involved in pharmaceutical subjects which qualify for government authorization as a pharmacist cf. The Health Personnel Act of 2nd July 1999, including the right to dispense drugs in Norwegian pharmacies.

  • Impact of Pharmacist Educational Intervention on Disease Knowledge
    Naqvi et al. Trials (2019) 20:488 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13063-019-3540-z STUDY PROTOCOL Open Access Impact of pharmacist educational intervention on disease knowledge, rehabilitation and medication adherence, treatment-induced direct cost, health- related quality of life and satisfaction in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial Atta Abbas Naqvi1* , Mohamed Azmi Hassali1, Syed Baqir Shyum Naqvi2 and Muhammad Tariq Aftab3 Abstract Background: The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of pharmacist intervention in improving disease knowledge, adherence to treatment, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and direct cost of treatment. The study also documents patient satisfaction with pharmacist counselling as a quality control measure. Methods/design: This is a randomized, single-blind, two-arm, controlled trial in patients with rheumatoid arthritis visiting outpatient rheumatology clinics in Karachi, Pakistan. We will enroll patients with established diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis over 3 months. The patients would be randomized through a computer-generated list into the control group, i.e., usual care or into the intervention group, i.e., pharmaceutical care, in a ratio of 1:1, after providing signed written consent. The study will take place in two patient-visits over the course of 3 months. Patients in the intervention group would receive intervention from the pharmacist while those in the control group will receive usual care. Primary outcomes include change in mean score from baseline (week 0) and at follow up (week 12) in disease knowledge, adherence to medications and rehabilitation/physical therapy. The secondary outcomes include change in the mean direct cost of treatment, HRQoL and patient satisfaction with pharmacist counselling.
