8th September 2017
Pharmacists must be paid to treat UTIs and shingles and to provide emergency contraception.

That’s the consensus of a panel of international pharmacy leaders, who have come up with a list of must-have remunerated programs for Australian pharmacy.
Here are ten of the core programs they came up with at Pharmacy Connect over the weekend:
- Treatment of minor ailments and acute conditions such as UTIs and shingles.
- Emergency contraception.
- Expanded vaccinations, such as pneumococcal and shingles.
- Pharmacogenetic testing for high-cost medicines.
