Dear Peter,
in Italy Phenilbutazone products are out of the market since a couple of
years. You can only have the raw matrial to prepare capsules by yourself,
that it is what we do if we receive any prescription.
I think is an opportunity to highlight one of the foundamental aspects of the
pharmacist' role in sanitary system. With a not so expensive machine, you can
be able to produce 1000 capsules/hour or more. Think about it.
Massimiliano.
