Dear colleagues,

I would like to thank all who have sent valuable feedbacks, ideas and suggestions regarding the second issue of the Bridge.

I would like to thank all who have sent us cases of medication errors. We have quite a large collection of different types of cases from different sources working in pharmaceutical practice, hospitals, primary health care centers and community pharmacies.

In this issue I have included a very interesting case
(Asthma and community pharmacists), which was submitted to us by a community pharmacist. Going through this case you will, definitely, realize how important the role of a community pharmacist is in the patient care process.
We would encourage you to read this case and send us your comments.

We hope you enjoy reading this issue.

We await the health provider pioneers kind feedback and participation.

Best regards,
