Environmental pharmacology: source, impact and solution
@article{Jena2019EnvironmentalPS, title={Environmental pharmacology: source, impact and solution}, author={Monalisa Jena and Archana Mishra and Rituparna Maiti}, journal={Reviews on Environmental Health}, year={2019}, volume={34}, pages={69 - 79} }
Abstract Environmental pharmacology is the knowledge, study and the methods implemented for amalgamating the presence of pharmaceutical products and their metabolites in the environment. Pharmaceutical and house care products and their metabolites gain access to the environment through various means and affect the flora and fauna and modulate the ecosystem. The effect on wildlife, biofilms and human are being studied to gain knowledge of sources and causations. Potential risks of development of…

It is argued that the lack of environment-facing mitigation actions included in existing AMR action plans is likely a function of the authors' poor fundamental understanding of many of the key issues and the science to inform policy is lacking and this needs to be addressed.
