Talk With Your Pharmacist: Bridging Pharmacy and Public Health Through the Airwaves

Since its launch, “Talk With Your Pharmacist” has become a trusted household name in Liberia — a dynamic radio program initiated by the Pharmaceutical Society of Liberia (PSL) to educate, inform, and engage the public on key pharmaceutical and healthcare issues.

Hosted weekly by renowned pharmacists Dr. Morrison A. Tamba and Dr. Sandra Nagbe, the show has consistently brought pharmacists from across the country — from rural clinics to urban hospitals, academia, regulation, and supply chains — into the spotlight. Through rich conversations and interactive sessions, these professionals have helped demystify pharmacy practice and elevate public understanding of the critical role pharmacists play in the healthcare ecosystem.

Each episode has tackled a wide range of topics, including:

• Safe and responsible medication use

• Clinical pharmacy and hospital-based care

• Pharmacy education and career pathways

• National drug policy and regulatory frameworks

• Challenges in the pharmaceutical supply chain

• Public health campaigns and outreach

The show’s popularity has soared thanks to its commitment to evidence-based discussions and real-time listener engagement. Audiences have appreciated the opportunity to interact with guests, ask questions, and receive reliable health advice — especially in a time when misinformation about medicines can have serious consequences.
