Pharmacists´ attitudes towards importance of compounding to their profession

• Results of a questionnaire mailed to a random sample of 661 Swedish pharmacists in Nov 1991. 486 usable replies were received (74% response). 85% of respondents worked for the Swedish national pharmacy corporation, of whom 75% were in community pharmacies and 20% in hospital pharmacies. 60% thought that extemporaneous compounding is an important part of the pharmacy profession. The results are discussed, and compared with attitudes to the pharmacist's role found in other countries.
