Abstract:
:This questionnaire survey was conducted to assess delivery of asthma drugs in community pharmacies in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. Participation rate was 88.69%. All participants stated they provide care for asthma patients either during acute episodes or between acute episodes. It was found that a considerable number of patients come to community pharmacies for care without prior medical prescription. In case of acute episodes, care is provided by the pharmacist in 59.80% of the cases. Aerosol devices are the most widely used although the technical procedures required for correct inhalation were found to be poorly understood by pharmacists. Slow-release corticosteroids are widely delivered for chronic care. Pharmacists also provide information and advice on drug compliance and concerning the importance of regular medical care and eviction of allergens.
