With authorities from both countries working together, Thai officials shut down three Internet pharmacies during November of 1999 through January of 2000.

Five Percent Rule. The total number of dosage units of controlled substances distributed by a pharmacy may not exceed 5% of all controlled substances dispensed by the pharmacy during a calendar year. If at any time the controlled substances distributed exceeds 5%, the pharmacy is also required to register as a distributor... 

In the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries, the distillation and extraction of plant and animal materials were the characteristic chemical operations of pharmacy. The focus of chemical-pharmaceutical practice was on the extraction of oils and juices and on the distillation of aqueous and oily substances from plants or vegetable materials such as herbs, blossoms, fruits, seeds, woods, resins, and balsams. However, in the sixteenth century Paracelsus and his followers began to use more frequently minerals as a source of medicines in addition to vegetable and animal substances. What was at first only a sporadic production of new chemical prepara-tions eventually induced a fundamental change in pharmacy. During the seventeenth century, preparations of mineral acids and salts surfaced as an important sector of chemical-pharmaceutical practice. This new commercial chemical practice spurred a process of reflection that contributed to the formation of the modem concept of the chemical compound. 

With the experimental results accumulated during his stay in Berlin, Garcia Gonzalez prepared two doctoral dissertations, entitled New Crystalline Phosphoric Esters of o-Fructose and Tests on Some Assumed Phases of Alcoholic Fermentation, which he presented in order to receive his doctorates in Chemistry and in Pharmacy, respectively, at the University of Madrid in 1932. Armed with these two degrees, he decided to pursue an academic career in his own country. His early training in a provincial... 

Friedrich Stromeyer (1776-1835). During the inspection of a pharmacy, Stromeyer confiscated zinc carbonate as it did not meet the purity standards when calcined, it showed a yellow residue cadmium oxide.

Within various pharmaceutical laboratories (industrial and academic), the mul-tinuclear technique of solid state NMR has primarily been applied to the study of polymorphism at the qualitative and quantitative levels. Although the technique ideally lends itself to the structure determination of drug compounds in the solid state, it is anticipated that in the future, solid state NMR will become routinely used for method development and problem solving activities in the analytical/materials science/physical pharmacy area of the pharmaceutical sciences. During the past few years, an increasing number of publications have emerged in which solid state NMR has become an invaluable technique. With the continuing development of solid state NMR pulse sequences and hardware improvements (increased sensitivity), solid state NMR will provide a wealth of information for the physical characterization of pharmaceutical solids. 

Direct costs include both medical and nonmedical expenditures for the detection, treatment, and prevention of disease. Direct medical costs reflect resources consumed in the "production" of health care, such as pharmaceutical products and services, physician visits, and hospital care. Direct nonmedical costs reflect expenditures for products and services that are not directly related to disease treatment but are still related to patient care. Examples of direct nonmedical costs include transportation to a pharmacy or physician s office and housekeeping during the illness period. Indirect costs account for changes in productivity of an individual because of illness. The monetary value of lost or altered productivity is typically used as a measure of indirect costs. Intangible costs and consequences are nonmonetary in nature and reflect the impact of disease and its treatment on the individual s social and emotional functioning and quality of life. Table 12.2 provides examples of these types of costs and consequences. 

Two teaching chairs in chemistry were installed at the Jardin du Roi in Paris during the seventeenth century, and the lectures of Nicolas Lemery and Nicolas Le Fevre became standard texts for the next fifty years. 54 The teaching of chemistry and pharmacy was widely practiced in eighteenth-century medical faculties, exemplified at a very high standard in the lectures of Hermann Boerhaave at Leiden, Bergmann at Uppsala, and Black at Edinburgh.
