I was watching Unang Hirit last Friday morning in a bus on my way to work. In one of the commercial breaks, a familiar face was shown on TV.
Guess what? It was none other than Ms. Normita D. Leyesa, President of the PPhA, in a TV commercial with PITC chairman Roberto Pagdanganan promoting the use of generic drugs!
This was the first time that I've seen this kind of commercial since the Generics Act was enacted in 1988.
True enough to the PPhA preamble, President Leyesa has shown that "A pharmacist, in coordination with the government and other health professional helps in the formulation and implementation of health care policies, standards and programs designed for the benefit of society."
Let's all hope that the members of the PPhA feels the same way.
