Galenic Pharmacy

Galenic pharmacy is a discipline that focuses on the preparation and formulation of pharmaceutical products. Named after the ancient physician Galen, it involves combining natural substances (like plants and minerals) to create medicines tailored to patient needs. This process includes understanding the properties of ingredients, ensuring their stability, and delivering them in effective forms, such as tablets or creams. Galenic pharmacy emphasizes custom solutions, often resulting in personalized medications that meet specific therapeutic requirements, contributing to more effective patient care. It plays a crucial role in bridging traditional herbal remedies and modern pharmaceutical practices.
