A community pharmacy, also known as a retail pharmacy, is the most common type of pharmacy that allows the public access to their medications and advice about their health. The conditions existing in the community pharmacy, as well as the qualification of the staff who work there, are fundamental for the compliance of good pharmacy practices.
To assess the practices, facilities, equipment, and personnel of community pharmacies in the Municipality of Malanje.
A cross-sectional observational study with a quantitative and qualitative approach. Through a simple random sampling technique, 20 pharmacies were selected from a universe of 73 reported by official authorities.
no pharmacist was acting in the local pharmacies, and their activity was supported by other professionals, particularly intermediate nursing technicians (57%). Most pharmacies were in the peri-urban area, and their functional areas, equipment, and utilities were not in accordance with Angolan law. In addition, the distribution of some drugs that are not over-the-counter was observed.
community pharmacies in Malanje develop their activity in disregard of the law, constituting a considerable weakness that affects the observance of pharmacy service standards.
社区药房，也称为零售药房，是最常见的药房类型，公众可以在此获取药品并获得有关健康的建议。社区药房的现有条件以及在那里工作的人员资质，对于遵守良好药房规范至关重要。
评估马兰热市社区药房的业务、设施、设备和人员情况。
采用定量和定性相结合的横断面观察性研究。通过简单随机抽样技术，从官方报告的73家药房中选取了20家。
当地药房没有药剂师在职，其业务由其他专业人员支持，特别是中级护理技术员（57%）。大多数药房位于城郊地区，其功能区域、设备和设施不符合安哥拉法律。此外，还观察到一些非非处方药的分发情况。
马兰热市的社区药房无视法律开展业务，这是一个严重的弱点，影响了药房服务标准的遵守。
