Abstract

Environmental pollution with medicines is a major problem against which the best solutions are sought, in the context of a risk of contamination present in all activities relating to medicines, including those specific to the community pharmacy. The objective of the paper was to identify the best ways for developing the role of the Romanian community pharmacy in environmental protection. We performed documentary research on the websites of professional associations and pharmacies in Romania to find relevant documents, which we submitted to a thematic analysis. The community pharmacy can contribute to the protection of the environment in many ways, from reducing the waste of medicines, by promoting rational use practices and providing appropriate services for patient adherence to treatment, to collecting waste medicines from the population. In Romania, the community pharmacy is too little involved in environmental protection, therefore proper regulation of its role is necessary, combined with the will of pharmacy owners and professional associations to develop it. The most accessible ways to involve the Romanian community pharmacy include adopting institutional green policies and providing information to the population regarding the best practices for environmental protection.

发展罗马尼亚社区药房在环境保护中的作用

在所有与药品有关的活动（包括社区药房特有的活动）都存在污染风险的背景下，药品造成的环境污染是一个需要寻求最佳解决方案的重大问题。本文旨在确定发展罗马尼亚社区药房在环境保护方面作用的最佳途径。我们在罗马尼亚专业协会和药房的网站上进行了文献研究，以查找相关文件，并对这些文件进行了专题分析。社区药房可以通过多种方式为环境保护做出贡献，包括通过促进合理用药、为患者坚持治疗提供适当的服务来减少药品浪费，以及从居民中收集废弃药品。在罗马尼亚，社区药房参与环境保护的程度太低，因此有必要对其作用进行适当规范，同时药房业主和专业协会也有意愿发展社区药房。让罗马尼亚社区药房参与其中的最便捷方法包括采取机构绿色政策，并向居民提供有关环境保护最佳实践的信息。网站
