Mar 23, 2017 - The Role of the Pharmacist in Raising Patient Awareness. Mike Isles. Executive Director, European Allianc
Symposium Invitation
Symposium Agenda Access to Unlicensed Medicines; Right Medicine, Right Patient, Right Time Regardless of whether the need for accessing unlicensed medicines is driven by a supply disruption, treatment of a rare disease or other options being unsuitable or simply not working, the role of hospital pharmacists is critical in ensuring patient treatment continues uninterrupted. Sourcing and timely supply of unlicensed medicines is complex and demanding. In this meeting, we will explore this changing landscape and give pointers on how best to respond to these challenges and maintain an optimal service for all stakeholders: patients, physicians and policy-makers. Come and join our symposium where you will learn from expert insights and opinions on this patient-critical and evolving issue.
OUR FOCUS is on giving healthcare professionals access to a world of unlicensed medicines
