AT THE PHARMACY

Pharmacy (chemist's shop) is a specialized shop where medicines are sold. Pharmacy is usually situated on the ground floor.

It has a hall for visitors, two departments for selling drugs, and proper working rooms. The department for reception of prescriptions and delivery of drugs is called a prescription department. The other one is called a chemist department. At the prescription department medicines are sold or made according to prescriptions. Here one can see medicines of all kinds: boxes and parcels of different powders, ampoules of glucose and camphor used for intramuscular and intravenous injections; tubes of ointments for rubbing; different pills and tablets for internal use; tonics and sedatives administered orally.

At the chemist department one may buy also different things for medical care and medicinal plants. At this department medicines are kept according to their therapeutic effect drugs for cough, cardiac medicines, drugs for headache. Disinfectants, herbs and things for medical care such as hot water bottles, medicine droppers, cups, thermometers are kept separately.

The working rooms of a chemist's include rooms for washing, drying, and sterilization of glassware; an analytical laboratory; a room for storing medicines; a room for dispensing drugs and some others.

At the chemists all medicines are kept in drug cabinets, on the open shelves and in the refrigerator. Poisonous drugs are kept in the drug cabinet with the letter A. Strong effective drugs are kept in the drug cabinet having the letter B.

Every small bottle or box has a label with the name of the medicine. There are labels of four colours for the drugs prepared at the chemist's: labels of a green colour indicate medicines for internal use; blue labels indicate drugs used for injections. Drugs for external application have labels of a yellow colour. Drugs used for treatment of eyes diseases have labels of a pink colour.

The personnel of an average chemist's consists of a manager of the chemist's, a dispensing pharmacist who takes prescription and delivers drugs, a chemist controlling the prescription. The personnel includes also a chemist analyst who controls effectiveness of the drug prepared at the chemist's as well as that of manufactured drugs.

There is also a pharmacist who is in charge of the supply of necessary medicines.
