“…Being a profession with prolonged orthostatism, in addition to orthostatic oedema, the risk of chronic fatigue syndrome (myalgia encephalomyelitis -ME/CFS) can be mentioned. This somatic functional syndrome is characterized by severe fatigue, which can last for several months, not improved at rest and which can be associated with a degree of disability [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Therefore, pharmacists are exposed to a variety of risk factors in the workplace while performing their professional activity.…”
