Be aware: is a product a supplement?

摘要

THE professional role of a pharmacist involves the delivery of the highest quality pharmaceutical care underpinned by clinical effectiveness and safety through professional decisions made. Supplying medicines that hold a marketing authorisation in preference to unlicensed products or food supplements ensures the supply benefits from assurances of quality, safety and efficacy from processes and standards underpinned by Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP).This is consistent with the hierarchy of risk approach for the supply of medicines as illustrated.
