List Of Good Pharmacy Blogs

Pharmacy blogs

With the introduction of the internet came the proliferation of website and blogs. Blogs became so popular around the world in the year 2005.

That was when some few in Nigeria took into blogging like Linda Ikeji of www.lindaikejisblog.com and Oluwaseun Osewa of www.nairaland.com although Nairaland is a forum. The success of these ones in Nigeria makes blogging to become so popular some few years down the line.

There are about 160 million blogs in the world. Many are springing up every day. They all serve different purposes solving one problem or another. For example, a blog can be in the niche or health care while another is in technology.

However, a problem is very common in blogging. People who are not experts in that field manage many blogs. This has led to the provision of the wrong message to readers. However, I must not forget to say some very popular blogs are run and managed by people who are experts in other fields. This problem is also very common even in sensitive niches in Nigeria like a medical blog.

There are a couple of blogs on health and medicine that are run by both medical and non-medical experts. Therefore, for the benefits of my readers, I have compiled a list of blogs majorly managed by pharmacist or pharmacy students that discuss issues pertaining to the profession. However, there will be few that are owned by others.
