Uni-4-disaster week 1 & 2 report

Now it is Uni-4-disaster, another 4 subjects, in 4 months...

P109 is back!!!

Started up pretty much the same as previous semesters, lectures are back in LT2. Lectures and workshops are also pretty much the same, except that the lab sessions were very different from anything I have encountered.
In the first two practical sessions, we had to move from station to station to learn basics of Pharmacy Practice. We had first hand experience in serial mixing, label making, calculations, using of BNF and making measurements using non-conventional chemistry apparatus.

In week 2, I had more exposure to actual makings of medicine in the form of solution and powder.

Next will be suspension and cream, but I don't have any pictures of it. Should I get pictures from someone else? Maybe not, no authenticity anymore...
