University Pharmacy (Unipharm)
Unipharm Community Pharmacy Practicum, also called “Unipharm,” is registered with the Provincial Ministry of Public Health for serving medicine to people. The first branch is located opposite the night market in the municipality of Maha Sarakham Province. The Faculty of Pharmacy, Mahasarakham University is the owner and started the first branch on March 9, 2006. Unipharm now has a second branch which is located in the new campus area near the complex building. Unipharm aims to be a pharmacy profession practicum for pharmacy students at Mahasarakham University, a role model in pharmacy service, a health information resource for people, and a source of counselling for proper use of medications. Unipharm runs under the Unipharm administrative committee which ensures evidence based quality services.
Unipharm provides medicines, herbs, Thai traditional medicine, and counseling services. It has been accredited under the Quality Community Pharmacy Project by the Pharmacy Council since 2003. Unipharm has joined services with a local health organization under the 30 baht project run by the Health Systems Research Institute since 2001. People can access medicine for minor illnesses at Unipharm with a co-pay of 30 baht. Since 2007 Unipharm has continued to develop services with partners such as the National Health Security Office, the Food and Drug Administration of Thailand, and the Community Pharmacy Association. Services aimed at serving the local needs that Unipharm provides include sexually transmitted infections, smoking cessation, home care, and screening and referrals for new cases of chronic illnesses. To better serve the community, Unipharm joined the Refill Prescriptions Project for Chronic Disease Patients which was started in 2019 by the Ministry of Public Health to help reduce overcrowding in hospitals.
