She goes to the community pharmacy to pick up a treatment for flatulence that has been prescribed to her in primary care. The prescribed medications are dispensed: Clebopride/Simeticone and paracetamol in addition to asking the pharmacy for a shower gel without detergent for back irritations. After 5 days of treatment, the patient returns requesting a more powerful analgesic since the pain has worsened.The patient was referred to the emergency department upon detection of an MRI of Necessity related to an untreated health problem. In the emergency department, he undergoes an ultrasound and intravenous analgesics that relieve the pain, diagnoses nephritic colic and prescribes metamizole and tramadol/paracetamol. The next day the patient goes to her primary care doctor and he tells her to continue with the prescribed treatment in the emergency room.The patient goes to the community pharmacy again requesting something for the rashes on her back since the gel does not calm her. The pharmacist makes a second referral to the doctor, with a written communication of suspicion of Herpes Zoster, the doctor accepts the intervention and changes the treatment by putting Valacyclovir, paracetamol/codeine and capsaicin cream. The patient returns to the pharmacy reporting that the doctor was surprised that it was a pharmacist who gave the correct diagnosis.
