An unprecedented clash between doctors and pharmacists is taking place these days in neighboring Switzerland, where this week the People's Chamber will discuss a highly controversial change to the law. If the proposal under examination, formulated by the Social Security and Health Commission of the National Council (Csss-n), is accepted, greater responsibilities will be assigned to pharmacists compared to what is currently envisaged by the Federal Council: in the presence of certain indications, pharmacists they will be able to autonomously dispense medicines subject to the obligation of a medical prescription. Furthermore, for each prescription, the doctor should compile a prescription that leaves the patient free to obtain the drug wherever he wishes.
Sven Bradke<\/b>, director of the \u00c4rtze mit Patientenapotheke, declared that the proposal is badly conceived and is very dangerous for the patients themselves, who would receive medicines in the absence of a medical diagnosis: \u00abit is an intolerable situation, since pharmacists, unlike doctors, are not trained to assess the health status of patients".
Swiss pharmacists think otherwise and Marcel Mesnil<\/b>, secretary general of Pharmasuisse, believes that university training qualifies pharmacists as real specialists in the medicines sector; moreover, "there are already clear obligations and limits in the delivery of medicines to pharmacies".
According to Mesnil, the measure would strengthen basic care and would represent a creative solution, useful in a social situation that will be increasingly characterized by an aging population and a shortage of family doctors.
Some figures give an idea of how much the proposal has had controversial reactions and how difficult it will be to reach a compromise that satisfies all the parties: during the consultation procedure, more than 180 positions were forwarded and the CSSS-n dedicated about fifty hours of work on this dossier, with the examination of as many as 130 minority proposals.
