The occasion of World Pharmacy Day serves as a reminder to honour all medical specialists who provide their services with empathy and understanding. Pharmacists provide the availability of pharmaceuticals and guidance on safe medication usage.
Every year on September 25, World Pharmacist Day is commemorated with the goal of highlighting and advocating the pharmacist's contribution to health improvement.
As pharmacy combines medical science and chemistry, it has a significant impact on the healthcare system. Pharmaceutical development, production, disposal, safe and effective use, and management fall under the purview of pharmacists. If pharmacists did not have a solid understanding of drugs, their side effects, mobility, and toxicity, the world would not have trustworthy, safe medications.
