The Journey of a Prescription

"The Journey of a Prescription," explores the profound process and responsibilities inherent in dispensing medication, framing it through a poetic narrative and a reflective essay. The poem illustrates the entire course of a prescription, starting with the patient's ailment and concluding with the pharmacist’s final delivery, emphasising the careful checks and scientific knowledge required at each step. Subsequently, the reflection defines the pharmacist’s role as the "Quiet Guardian," highlighting that the process is not merely a transaction but a bridge built upon precision, trust, and ethical responsibility. Ultimately, the pharmacist is the critical safeguard ensuring the doctor’s initial intention translates into safe and effective treatment, defending patient safety and integrity.
