Resumen
En el contexto actual de la práctica farmacéutica en Cuba, el servicio de formulación dispensarial sigue siendo uno de los fundamentales brindados en las farmacias comunitarias con Dispensario, sin embargo no se explota suficientemente. El objetivo del presente trabajo es caracterizar el servicio de formulación dispensarial en farmacias comunitarias de la ciudad de Santa Clara de la provincia Villa Clara, que se abordó mediante un estudio local a pequeña escala. Se contrastó el concepto oficial sobre medicamentos dispensariales en Cuba con el de la Unión Europea, se exploró la situación sobre organizaciones internacionales y fuentes de información sobre formulación dispensarial en el país. Se examinó el grado de cumplimiento de las regulaciones nacionales sobre formulación dispensarial mediante una encuesta a profesionales farmacéuticos de nueve farmacias con Dispensario y una entrevista semiestructurada en la farmacia 5132-717. En esta farmacia se realizó un estudio descriptivo, transversal de las formulaciones dispensariales preparadas en los años 2016 y 2018. Se demostró que el concepto oficial actual de medicamentos dispensariales, así como sus tipos, en nuestro país coincide en lo esencial con los del referente internacional. La situación desfavorable en relación a organizaciones profesionales, fuentes de información, de actividad investigativa, de vinculación interdisciplinaria; las condiciones materiales, así como la no implementación de la resolución más actual sobre formulación dispensarial, así como el reducido alcance de estas formulaciones en cuanto a variedad de formas farmacéuticas, vías de administración y escasa diversidad de ingredientes farmacéuticos activos, no propician la mejora de la calidad de este servicio farmacéutico.
In the current context of pharmaceutical practice in Cuba, the compounded medication service continues to be one of the fundamental services offered in community pharmacies with Dispensary, however, it is not sufficiently exploited. The objective of this paper is to characterize the compounded medication service in community pharmacies in the city of Santa Clara, Villa Clara province, which was addressed by a local small-scale study. The official concept on compounded medications in Cuba was compared with that of the European Union; the situation was explored on international organizations and sources of information on dispensary formulation in the country. The degree of compliance with the national regulations on compounded medication was examined by means of a survey of pharmaceutical professionals from nine pharmacies with Dispensary and a semi-structured interview in the pharmacy 5132-717. In this pharmacy a descriptive, cross-sectional study of the compounded medications prepared in the years 2016 and 2018 was carried out. It was demonstrated that the current official concept of compounded medication, as well as their types, in our country coincides essentially with those of the international reference. The unfavorable situation in relation to professional organizations, sources of information, investigative activity, interdisciplinary links; the material conditions, as well as the non-implementation of the most current resolution on compounded medications, as well as the limited scope of these formulations in terms of variety of pharmaceutical dosage forms, routes of administration and scarce diversity of active pharmaceutical ingredients, do not encourage the improvement of the quality of this pharmaceutical service
