Although the medical prescription is a well-established process, prescribing in the pharmacy does not follow a well-defined set of rules as, in official terms, there is no such thing as a pharmaceutical prescription. Despite this fact, daily pharmacy practice involves giving professional advice and dispensing drugs not only in fulfillment of a medical practitioner's prescription but also by selling drugs the pharmacist personally advises use of. In this particular case, the pharmacist must assess the patients desire for a specific treatment and determine whether it is well founded. The pharmacist has to decide whether he/she can deal with the presenting symptom or whether the person should be referred to a practising physician. For example, often-recurring mouth disease such as mouth-ulcers and gingivitis can be handled within the pharmacy. The pharmacist may think of implementing a suitable treatment involving dietary and hygienic counselling and dispense carefully selected drugs. The situation is similar in many other clinical conditions. As the pharmacist has had professional training in drugs at the university and teaching hospital, he/she is the expert in drugs and can rightly claim entitled to prescribing drugs within reasonable limits.
