Dylan Said, a Master of Pharmacy final year student, received the Actavis Best M.Pharm. Student Presentation Award at the annual pharmacy symposium. Mr Said presented his project entitled Practical Implication in Shelf-life Extension of Cytotoxic Admixtures.

The study, carried out at Mater Dei Hospital and Sir Paul Boffa Hospital’s cytotoxic compounding units, focused on the volume and cost of more than 22,000 doses of medicines, as well as the risks and benefits implicated in shelf-life extension of admixtures. The award forms part of a technical agreement between Actavis and the University of Malta.

Actavis Expoty International has renewed the agreement with the University for another three years. This agreement covers the Actavis Best M.Pharm. Student Presentation Award presented every year, the organisation of student placements and extra-mural practical sessions at Actavis for pharmacy and pharmaceutical technology students, as well as the publication of the Department of Pharmacy’s Journal of Euromed Pharmacy.
