Our profession was once again put in a bad light in one of the segments of the tv program "Imbestigador" when it featured in tonight's episode the 2 drugstores selling the unregistered drug misoprostol (Cytotec) in violation of the BFAD Advisory No. 02-02.
Nolee's Pharmacy in Calamba and Farmacia de Borja in Sta. Cruz (both in the province of Laguna) were positively found out selling the illegal drug.
The pharmacists in both drugstores were not present at the time when the "salesladies" were apprehended but it is more disappointing to learn from that segment that the owner of one of the drugstores is apparently a pharmacist.
If this is true, it seems that the guardian of the public health has gone enslaved to the lure of wealth.

thanks to Imbestigador! matagal na po talamak ang ganitong kalakaran sa farmacia de borja, ang pinagtataka ko ay kung bakit hindi kasama ang BFAD inspector at sta cruz police sa operation (dahil ba alam din nila ang nangyayari?, o pinagtatakpan nila ang ganitong ngyayari?) well, kahit high-school student pwede bumili sa kanila ng cytotec, valium, dormicum, etc! name it! talagang walang mahuhuling pharmacist on duty dahil ang katotohanan ay wala naman talagang pharmacist! idagdag pa natin ang mga pekeng gamot na ibinebenta sa napakamurang halaga, kaawa-awang mga cotumer, hindi namamalayan na wala naman kwenta ang iniinom na gamot. nabasaa ko din sa balita na ipinasara daw?? sana nanggaling ang balita? business as usual ang botikang to! in fact, napakalapit sa police outpost ng botikang ito! ano kaya ang ngyayari? hmmm... http://rmnnews.com/beta/news/national/19980-gamot-pampalaglag-nasamsam-sa-laguna.html
hahaha! agree ako dyan! pinagyayabang na ipinasara daw pero pagkaalis nung humuli ok na ulit! wala talaga kwenta justice system dito! hoy FDA inspector, wag tutulog tulog dyan sa pansitan! kung mga bata nga alam ang bentahan ng gamot na ganyan sa borja, ikaw pa kaya??
