title: [Patient-oriented advice on pharmaceuticals and its position on pregraduate education of pharmacists].
abstract: Patient-oriented information on pharmaceuticals has gradually become the dominant activity of the pharmacist in the community pharmacy. It is therefore necessary to devote sufficient attention to the quality of patient oriented advice already in the course of the pregraduate education of pharmacists so that new graduates who start practising may be prepared both theoretically and practically to cope with the requirements they encounter when working with pharmaceuticals and patients under the contemporary conditions. This paper aimed to monitor the present state of instruction of undergraduates as far as the items of information given to patients are concerned. The results of the study propose to the instructor possible ways of motivating and guiding the undergraduates to the correct approach of the use of information given to patients are concerned. The results of the study propose to the instructor possible ways of motivating and guiding the undergraduates to the correct approach of the use of information on pharmaceuticals as well as the methods items of employng these items of information on dispensing.
