Keywords:
randomised controlled clinical studies, Good Clinical Practice, research nurseAbstract
Pharmaceutical medicine is a medical specialty concerned with the discovery, development, evaluation, licensing and monitoring of medicines, and the medical aspects of their marketing for the benefit of patients and the public health. In 1963 the Committee on Safety of Medicines reinforced the need for specially trained doctors in the pharmaceutical industry and academic departments of medicine. The Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine exists to set, maintain and where possible, to raise standards in the practice of pharmaceutical medicine. The Faculty aims to promote the science of pharmaceutical medicine, cooperation with research nurses in clinical trials and to develop and maintain competence, ethical integrity and highly professional standards in the practice of pharmaceutical medicine.
