When it comes to writing an essay about “Aim in Life” or “What do you want to be in life,” none is left to write an essay or paragraph in their childhood. Some used to write to get a good mark, and some believed in becoming a doctor or helping humanity.
A saying goes that “Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is a lot of humanity there- suits those who dream of becoming a doctor and helping people, society, and even a country.” In the light of serving people with treatment for various diseases, the contribution is attributed to multiple areas of medical science, which are advancing every day.
However, of all areas of medical science, the pharmaceutical industry plays the most significant role not only because the root of all the treatments is based on the pharmaceuticals, but there would be no role if there were no medicine. While the pharmaceutical industry is being blessed with constant development globally, Bangladesh is no exception where people may find most of their essential medicine thanks to the existence of companies like Navana Pharmaceuticals Ltd.
