Long Chau Pharmacy is one of the pioneering units selected by GSK’s distribution partners for their commitment to providing modern treatment solutions and their dedication to improving children’s health in Vietnam.
This solution enhances treatment responsiveness, improves children’s cooperation, and aims for effective treatment, reducing drug abuse, and contributing to antibiotic resistance control in the community.
According to experts, acute otitis media and community-acquired pneumonia are two common respiratory diseases in young children, especially during seasonal transitions or when children return to school. Community-acquired pneumonia is currently recorded at a rate of 5.16-6.11 cases per 1,000 people per year and can progress to a severe stage if not treated promptly, especially in young children and those with underlying conditions. Therefore, having an improved formulation of the medicine provides doctors with additional options for prescription, leading to faster recovery for children.
“My twin children had just returned to school when they fell ill with coughs and were diagnosed with pneumonia. Since they are twins, they usually get sick together, and each time it happens, my family is worried sick because, on top of their usual picky eating habits, they become irritable when sick, making it difficult to ensure they take their medication properly. This time, both of them had pneumonia, which made us even more anxious.” shared Ms. V.T.T. from Ha Dong, Hanoi.
“The doctor prescribed an antibiotic treatment for my children and selected the one with the new improved formula. My family brought the prescription to the nearby Long Chau Pharmacy to purchase the medication, as we usually do for prescribed medication because the pharmacy has a wide range of products and we can find all the medicines in one place, which is very convenient compared to how it used to be.” Ms. T. added.
FPT Long Chau’s top priority is to quickly update advanced treatment solutions and elevate the standard of healthcare for Vietnamese people.
“We are proud to be trusted by international pharmaceutical companies as their partner of choice in Vietnam. Our timely update of improved treatment formulas demonstrates Long Chau’s commitment to specializing in next-generation products, ensuring comprehensive treatment effectiveness and holistic healthcare for patients.” shared Mr. Vu Ngoc Thang, Category Director at Long Chau Pharmacy.
GSK and Long Chau Pharmacy collaborate to implement an advanced training program for Long Chau’s team of pharmacists.
Along with the implementation of the improved treatment solution, Long Chau and GSK organized an intensive training program for their team of pharmacists. The program aimed to update their professional knowledge and enhance their consulting skills, especially when dealing with parents of young children.
