Thinking about ethical dilemmas in pharmacy.
Am J Pharm Educ 1986 Sum; 50:(2):161-4
Abstract:
Pharmacy students as well as pharmacists were surveyed on ethical dilemmas in pharmacy practice. The respondents indicated a high degree of concern over patient welfare on which there was agreement. The major area of disagreements was on economic concerns. Since it takes time to develop a professional ethical system, it seems desirable to begin discussion of ethical dilemmas as early as possible in the curriculum.
