Dispensación de medicamentos sin prescripción médica en oficinas de farmacia

Dispensation without prescription persists in Barcelona's pharmacies despite current campaigns and legislation changes. Pharmacy offices do not fully perform their role as health agents and they wrongly indicate the steps to be followed towards a medical problem. Dispensing without prescription must be avoided since it supposes a poorly controlled health risk, it perverts clinical care track, it trivializes drug use and it does not contribute to the population's health education.
