HISTORY OF THE WORLD PHARMACEUTICAL

history of the world pharmaceutical

From the time of Hippocrates (460-370 BC), known as the "Father of Medicine", has not known the profession of Pharmacy. A doctor who mendignosis disease, also it is also a "pharmacist" who prepared the medication. The longer the drug supply problem more complex, both the formula and its manufacture, and therefore requires the existence of a special skill. In the year AD 1240, German King Frederick II officially ordered the separation between the Pharmacy and Medicine in the decrees of the famous "Two Silices".From this history, one thing to ponder is that the root of pharmaceutical science and medicine are the same.

The impact of the industrial revolution swept the world with the emergence of the pharmaceutical drug industries, so terpisahlah activities in the field of pharmaceutical and drug industry in the area of ​​"provider / peracik" drug (= the pharmacy). In this case the pharmacy is much needed expertise in the pharmaceutical industry than in pharmacies. It could be argued that the technology is identical to the pharmaceutical drug manufacturing.

Pharmacy education developed along with the pattern of technological development in order to be able to produce a drug product that meets the requirements and according to need. Education curriculum is more structured pharmaceutical drug manufacturing technology direction to support the success of their students in carrying out the duties of his profession.

Viewed from the side of Pharmacy education in Indonesia is not yet a majority of the pharmaceutical field, including in the field of its own but Mathematics (Mathematics and Natural Sciences) which is a group of pure science (basic science) so that its graduates S1 was not called but a Bachelor of Pharmacy Bachelor of Science.

Department of Labor of the Republic of Indonesia (1997) in the "information office for the competency standards of work" said Engineer position Pharmaceutical Chemistry, (belonging to the health sector) for the positions that are closely linked with drugs, with the following requirements: Bachelor of Engineering Pharmaceutical Education.

Pharmaceutical book handbook states that the pharmacy is a field that involves all aspects of medicine, including: isolation / synthesis, manufacture, control, distribution and use.

Silverman and Lee (1974) in his book, "Pills, Profits and Politics", states that:

A. Pharmacist who plays an important role in helping doctors to prescribe rationally.Membanu see that the right medicine, at the right time, in the correct amount, making the patient knows about the "how, when, why" the use of either drug with or without a prescription. 
2. Pharmacist is a very reliable and well-trained and pakart in terms of product / production of drugs that have the greatest opportunity to follow the latest developments in the field of medicine, which can serve both doctors and patients, as an "advisor" who is experienced. 
3. Pharmacist position was the Brazilians is key in preventing the use of the wrong drug, prescription drug abuse and irrational.

While Herfindal in his book "Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics" (1992) stated that the Pharmacist must provide "Therapeutic judgment" rather than simply as a source of drug information.

See things above, then the apparent confusion about the position of a pharmacy. Where exactly lies the pharmacy? in the ranks of technology, pure science, medicine or stand alone? confusion in this position will confuse the pharmaceutical pharmacy education providers, what sort of curriculum should be presented; confused students absorb the material that is increasingly "a mountain" and the terbingung are graduates (who are still "new"), which was not "master "anything.

In the UK, since 1962, beginning a new era in pharmaceutical education, pharmacy education which was originally due to be part of the MIPA, which turned into a stand-alone field of pharmaceutical utuh.rofesi evolve toward a "patient oriented", Ward Pharmacy memuculkan development ( ward pharmacy) or Clinical Pharmacy (Pharmacy clinic).

In the USA has been recognized since 1963 that the public and other professionals need pliers drug information should come from the pharmacist. The findings of the 1975 reveals the doctors claim that a drug information pharmacist is "severe", unable to meet the needs of the doctors will berkualits drug information pharmacists who assessed very rare / scarce, even said that compared with apotekeer, medical representative from the pharmaceutical industry is even more source of drug information for physicians.

Recent developments is the emergence of the concept of "Pharmaceutical Care" which brings the practitioner as well as the "professor" to the "territory" patients.

Globally seen positive changes in current pharmaceutical towards its original roots as a partner of the physician in patient care.
