Pharmacies pharmaceutical Internet

The top 200 prescription drugs are published yearly in a number of pharmaceutical journals, including Pharmacy Times, and on the Internet http //www.rxlist.eom/top200.htm. 

A growing number of printed journals provide their contents online. Sometimes, this is for free—e.g., the Pharmaceutical Journal (http //www.pharmj.eom) of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain. But more often than not a subscription is needed. For details of other online pharmacy journals try the Virtual Pharmacy Library, PharmWeb (more information on these is given below in section, Internet Resources ), and the Free Medical Journals site (http //www.freemedicaljournals.com). Some journals will provide additional information online to their printed versions. Nature s Web site (http //www. nature.com) contains auxiliary data from authors, a link to a grant database and the opportunity to take part in online discussions. 

With respect to environmental impact, numerous measures can be implemented to reduce the entiy of licit pharmaceuticals into the environment. Routes of entiy span an enormous spectrum of possibilities (Daughton and Ruhoy, 2008). With illicit drugs, pollution prevention measures— that is, to discourage their manufacture, distribution (e.g., via unapproved Internet pharmacies), and end use—are straightforward, but more difficult to implement.
