  • Unani Pharmacy and Pharmacology
    International Journal of Human and Health Sciences Vol. 05 No. 03 July’21 Review Article: Contribution of al- Zahrawi (Albucasis) in the field of Pharmacy and Pharmacology with respect to his treatise Kitab al-Tasreef Mohd Akhtar Ali1, Mohd Danish2, Hamiduddin3 Abstract Abūl-Qāsim Khalaf ibn ʿAbbās al-Zahrāwī Latinised as Abulcasis or Zahravius, lived between 936–1013 AD. He was born and raised in Al-Zahra a suburb of Córdoba (Arabic: Cortoba) in Spain. He was a famous surgeon, a talented pharmacist and a capable pharmacologist. Zahrawi is very famous for his surgical contribution, but this work explores his pharmaceutical and pharmacological contribution with respect to his treatise Kitab al-Tasreef. He served as the court physician to Caliph ʿAbd ar-Raḥmān III an-Nāṣir (912–961 AD). He wrote his famous book “Kitab al-Tasreef li-man ‘ajaza ‘an al-ta’lif” (The Arrangement of Medical Knowledge for one who is not able to compile it) around the year 1000 AD after fifty years of clinical experience. This book is also a chief source for indicating pharmaceutical contribution of al-Zahrāwī apart from the field of surgery. Twenty seven volumes, from Volume 3 to 29, of thirty volumes of the book Kitab al- Tasreef are related to Unani pharmacy and pharmacology. Ibn Abī Uṣaybiʿa (1203-1270 AD) remarked him only as an expert of pharmacy and pharmacology. Al-Zahrāwī devoted his entire life and genius to the advancement of pharmacy, medicine and surgery. He sketched a few drawings of pharmaceutical instruments and mentioned their use in his book.

  • The Rise of Professional Pharmacy in Islam
    THE RISE OF PROFESSIONAL PHARMACY IN ISLAM by SAMI HAMARNEH THE emergence ofprofessional pharmacy in medieval Islam as a separate entity from medicine has followed almost the same pattern of development as that which modelled other branches of the health field during this period. But difficulty arose from the fact that there was no clear governmental legislation to prohibit the pharmacist from diagnosing and giving medical treatment to his customers or to restrict the physician from compounding and dispensing drugs to his patients. The charlatan and uncultured from both professions," not only in rural areas but also in cities, prevented pharmacy from attaining professional status. Nevertheless, in larger hospitals and centres close to governmental supervision retail pharmacists as well as those in hospital and government service enjoyed recognition and prestige. The seventh century saw the institution and the expansion of the Arabic empire and the wide spread ofthe new faith, Islam, as the spiritual force behind it. In the early eighth century, Arabic military power reached its climax under the Umayyad dynasty in Damascus. Then the Abbasids took over (750-1258), and the centre ofactiv'ity moved from Syria to Iraq, where a new era ofcultural progress shortly started. Under Caliph al-Mansufr (754-75), medicine as well as other fields oflearning had a strong impetus to develop. With no discrimination for reasons of race or faith, the Caliph encouraged physicians, astronomers, mathematicians, architects and other learned men to cultivate their talents and help to advance intellectual pursuits. Notwithstanding, the first eight years of al-Mans.ir's reign were spent in labouring to stabilize and consolidate the Empire.

  • History of Pharmacy
    History of Pharmacy • Sumerians: • The development of cuneiform writing on clay tablets during the third millennium BC included lists of drugs obtained from animals, vegetables and mineral origin that were used in the management of diseases, and prescriptions with details of the ingredients used in their compounding. Many of the drugs listed were cited as having multiple uses since ailments were thought to be different manifestations of a condition. The use of medicines was carried out by priests (ashipu) and physicians (asu) • Egyptians: • The Ebers Papyrus is a document dating back to 1550 BC, which described prescriptions and modes of administration of drugs including gargles, inhalations, suppositories, ointments and lotions. Many of the drugs listed were included in the Sumerian documents. The use of medications was carried out by priests. Imhotep who is regarded as the earliest physician, was the High Priest of Heliopolis • Chinese: • In China, a comprehensive theory for diagnosis and treatment was developed. Manuscripts on silk and bamboo describe the use of drugs of animal and plant origin. The text Huangdi Neijing listed the basic principles of pharmaceutical drug use in the third century BC. Shengnon Bencao Jing outlined basic theory of Chinese pharmacy. • Indians: • Ayurvedic medicine was first described around 800 BC. It's based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body and spirit. It also uses some compounds of herbs, metals, or minerals. Some products contained levels of lead, mercury, and/or arsenic that exceeded the standards for acceptable daily intake. • Greeks & Romans: • Just as the Egyptians revered Imhotep as the god–physician, the Greeks worshipped Asklepios as their god of healing.

Collected since the late nineteenth century, mainly for historical value, the Kremers Files are primarily pharmaceutical in nature, although they also include a small amount of material on related sciences and professions. Geographically, they are American in emphasis, but they are also international in scope since they contain a wide range of information on other countries. The files are arranged post-1875 for the most part, but also contain representative secondary sources on earlier historical periods. Although this collection contains some interspersed manuscript material, the user should see the "American Institute of the History of Pharmacy Collection" in the State Historical Society of Wisconsin for the principal cumulation of American pharmaceutical manuscripts.

  • Evolution of Pharmacy Practice and Education, 1920–2020
    pharmacy Review Towards a Greater Professional Standing: Evolution of Pharmacy Practice and Education, 1920–2020 Benjamin Y. Urick * and Emily V. Meggs Eshelman School of Pharmacy, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC 27599, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 31 May 2019; Accepted: 18 July 2019; Published: 20 July 2019 Abstract: The history of community pharmacy in America since the 1920s is one of slow progress towards greater professional standing through changes in pharmacy education and practice. The history of American community pharmacy in the modern era can be divided into four periods: 1920–1949 (Soda Fountain Era), 1950–1979 (Lick, Stick, Pour and More Era), 1980–2009 (Pharmaceutical Care Era), and 2010–present (Post-Pharmaceutical Care Era). As traditional compounding has waned, leaders within community pharmacy have sought to shift focus from product to patient. Increasing degree requirements and postgraduate training have enhanced pharmacists’ ability to provide patient care services not directly associated with medication dispensing. However, the realities of practice have often fallen short of ideal visions of patient-focused community pharmacy practice. Positive trends in the recognition of the impact of community pharmacists on healthcare value and the need for more optimal medication management suggest that opportunities for community pharmacists to provide patient care may expand through the 21st century. Keywords: history of pharmacy; 20th century history; 21st century history; community pharmacy services; pharmacy education 1. Introduction As long there has been a belief in the medicinal properties of natural substances, there have been people whose duty it was to transform these materia medica into medicines.
