Jalandhar: A masters degree student of the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Lovely Professional University (LPU), Nitika Kaushal presented a research poster in Montreal, Canada, at 19th annual International meeting of International Society of Pharmacoeconomics and Research (ISPOR).
She was invited by ISPOR to elaborate her research on “Exaggerated Expiration Dates of Pharmaceuticals Enhancing Economic Burden on Health care system of a country”. The research focused on the unnecessary discarding of the drugs, which usually remain safe and useful.
Nitika’s research was highly appreciated by the experts from the area of health care economics. She said, “The revival of so called expired medicines will not only scale down the requirement of fresh batches of costly drugs but also benefit the needy society”.
Congratulating the young researcher, LPU Pro Chancellor Rashmi Mittal said, “Our School of Pharmaceutical Sciences is coming out with many innovative researches for the general benefit of humanity.”DP
