Pharmacists' Syndicate urges strict rules for electronic drug delivery
The President of the Pharmacists Syndicate, Zaid Al-Kilani, rejected the delivery of medications through apps and electronic platforms in their current form, emphasizing that this service requires an integrated system to ensure medication tracking, identify the patient who received it, and verify proper dispensing. He pointed out that medicines are subject to strict regulation starting from manufacturing, passing through transportation and storage, up to delivery to the patient. Medications are only sold through licensed pharmacists in pharmacies. He stressed the need for a national medication tracking system and a health record to allow electronic verification of the patient's condition, as well as the necessity of pharmacists providing consultation and ensuring the suitability of treatment, especially for dangerous drugs or those that may interact with other medications. He warned against unlicensed online applications and stores that deliver medications, noting that proper storage and transportation conditions are crucial for safety. The syndicate also rejects the use of digital health for medication delivery, relying instead on ensuring patient safety in accordance with legal regulations, and calls for strict oversight of any unlicensed delivery services.
