Dear All,

I have been a part of this discussion group and I  thank to all member and
this wonderful group to giving invaluable and instant suggestions, new
methods, new topics everyday which ultimately help me to grow in this field.

As a postgraduate student of clinical pharmacy, I liked evidence based
medicine as I have to present case studies in front of physician to give
suggestions to improve pharmaceutical care and to present it I must use the
best evidence to support my recommendation to change or stop the harmful or
nonessential medications or suggest any better alternative treatment to the
physician panel. but If I look as a carrier in EBM, Is this a compact course
or syllabus ? I think that it is more related to clinical epidemiology and
biostatistics, pharmacoepidemilogy and/ or pharmaceutical/health outcome and
policy research. so, If you are specialised in any of the those fields, you
can do EBM very easily. I want to persue a carrier in this field but somehow
I am not able to convince myself that there are good opportunity for
pharmacist to get good job may due to initial phase of EBM in developing
country.

Do we require to do master or PhD in this field ? What is the scope of this
field as an individual filed or supplementary field to existing the existing
?

I think the field is applied highly to the medical people who are in direct
contact with the patients because they are the decider of pharmacotherapy.
It should be targeted to those people and to do this should it be made
compulsory to learn EBM or EBP during their undergraduate course i.e MBBS,
BDS, BPH etc ?
Sincerely,
Amit
