Notes sur l'organisation de la pharmacie en Tunisie au XIXe siècle
The article discusses some of the main characteristics of the organization and administration of pharmaceutical services in nineteenth century Tunisia and provides some notes on the therapeutic practices of those times. Utilizing both primary sources from the Tunisian archives and secondary sources, the author concludes that pharmacy in the Regency was not a distinct profession and that no serious efforts were made to regulate pharmaceutical activities or provide adequate licensure or other controls until well after the French occupation in 1882, in spite of a general realization among the elite that some regulation would be useful and in the general interest of the Tunisian people.Montague Joël.
