Abstract
El farmacéutico, como profesional sanitario, juega un importante papel para garantizar el buen uso de los medicamentos. Merece especial atención la utilización de los antibióticos y los medicamentos bucofaríngeos de no prescripción médica ante una dolencia bucofaríngea, pues el paciente en la mayoría de los casos no utiliza o utiliza mal el fármaco necesario para su afección. Es aquí donde el profesional sanitario valorara el uso de uno u otro dependiendo de la patología y derivando si así se precisara al médico. Se analizara además si es adecuado su régimen legal y que opciones tiene el farmacéutico en el caso de que los medicamentos bucofaríngeos de origen industrial no solucionaran el síntoma menor del paciente.
Para ello nos basamos en el test diagnóstico denominado Streptotest y de nuestra experiencia en las prácticas tuteladas donde se desarrolló un cuestionario de siete preguntas cerradas en cinco oficinas de farmacias diferentes de la Comunidad de Madrid. En vista de los resultados obtenidos, pudimos dar respuesta a los objetivos de trabajo, quedando expuestos a continuación.
The pharmacist, in his condition of sanitary professional, plays a very important role ensuring the proper use of drugs. Special attention should be given to non-prescription antibiotics and drugs for oropharyngeal conditions since in most cases the patient misuses the drug or does not use it at all. This is the reason why the pharmacist must decide which drug is the most appropriate for the condition in question or even if the patient should be directed to a doctor. The pharmacist’s and these drugs’ legal regulation will be analyzed as well as the options the pharmacist has when industrially produced oropharyngeal drugs do not make the minor symptoms remit. To achieve our goals we based this project on the Rapid Strep Test (RST) -also known as Rapid Antigen Detection Test (RADT)- as well as on the experience we gathered during our supervised internships, during which we performed a questionnaire with seven multiple choice questions. This questionnaire was answered by five different pharmacists’ in the Community of Madrid (Comunidad de Madrid) .Considering the obtained results, we could achieve the objectives of this project, hereby exposed.
