According to Pharmacist Ly Hong Huong Ha, MA, Deputy Head of Pharmaceutical Materials – Plants, Hong Bang International University, these are practical activities to make students excited in learning, love pharmacy, inspiring them to apply pharmacy knowledge into reality.

This will stirr up student passions in learning and research, as they will themselves make their pharmaceutical products for beauty, antioxidant purposes, body detox, healthcare…

“Together with the practical activities, we want to inspire students, get them more and more interested in Pharmacology, have more passion and enthusiasm for their selected sector, reduce pressure and tension in learning, link theory with practice, get career orientation, use learned knowledge to take care of health and beauty for oneself, family and everyone,” she shared.

She added that the use of drugs or cosmetics, functional foods from pharmaceutical materials and medicinal herbs is already a clear trend in Vietnam and other countries around the world. With theories learned from class combined with practice will help Faculty of Pharmacy students get more confidence in choosing the most effective products to make as well as consulting on how to use them properly, as a future pharmacist.

Products made by the Faculty’s students with advice from pharmaceutical materials and botanicals lecturers include oil extracts from grapefruit, cajeput, and mint. The others are shampoo products (locust shampoo, ocimum shampoo, grapefruit shampoo, mint shampoo, lemongrass shampoo…) and hair spray products.

The students also make a series of tea products that can support treatment of diseases: flower tea, lettuce tea, guava leaf tea, chamomile tea, detox tea, calming tea, skin care tea; syrups made from plants for skin care and antioxidant purposes.
