Punjab Institute of Neurosciences (PINS) Executive Director Dr Khalid Mahmood has introduced a ‘drug formulary’ for the first time in the country’s history that guides the doctors and nurses in the treatment and care of neurological and neurosurgery patients.
It mentions medicines, implants and disposables items related to the treatment.
Expressing his views on the book, PINS Board of Management Chairman Prof Anjum Habib Vohra said the 85-page formulary contains 405 drugs and 132 disposable items and implants used in treating neurological diseases and neurosurgery.
It will provide an effective guideline for doctors and nurses and every physician will be able to easily seek guidance from the formulary when prescribing drugs for the treatment of neurological diseases, which will also save time and help improve patient care.
Prof Vohra said the formulary was a permanent addition to the field of medical education and research.
