hursday, February 8, 1951 Page 11 EVER WATCH A PHARMACIST FILL A PRESCRIPTION? » BB Each drug the pharmacist uses was produced by a responsible pharma= ceutical or chemical company in which he has implicit confidence. He knows that every medicinal substance on the shelves of his prescription room has been subjected to strict tests and analyses to insure its purity, quality, and strength. He would use no drug which hadn't been so tested: Even with this knowledge, however, the pharmacist fills every pre- scription with a deep sense of personal responsibility, He checks and hecks every ingredient he uses and every step in his compounding technic. He examines the contents of each bottle carefully as he takes fit from the shelf. He looks at it critically, he may take the stopper out and smell it, he may even taste a bit of it. He fills every prescription with the exacting care he would exercise if the medicine were for a member of his own family: The drugs he uses are old friends to your pharmacist. He met them first in his carly days at college and he has worked with them daily ever ince. Their color, texture, odor, and taste arc closely associated in his mind with their actions and their uses. It is second nature for the pharmacist to check drugs by sight, by taste, and by smell. His knowledge and training are as much a part of the prescription he fills as are any of its ingredients.-- Reprinted from a copyrighted advertisement published by Parke, Davis, & Company.
