PHARMACIES in the Philippines are typically mom-and-pop-style operations that run on pen and paper. This means that no one - from the drug firms to the government - has a clear view of what goes on between pharmacists and their customers.
On a larger scale, it also means that national health programmes and policies are based on surveys and estimates instead of real-time information.
