World Pharmacist Day; let's Join the Campaign; we are Special!

The International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) is the worldwide body representing more than 4 million pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists. FIP annually celebrates “World Pharmacist Day” with the objective to empower pharmacists and support the development of the pharmacy profession by advancing pharmacy globally.

This year’s World Pharmacists Day campaign: “Pharmacy: Always trusted for your health” is an opportunity for the  Pharmacy Department of  Hospitals as well as Pharmaceutical Industries & others to show appreciation for the trust placed in the profession and increase awareness of this trust and pharmacists’ vital role in improving health, says FIP.



As a career, Doctor of Pharmacy is one of the noble health care professional degrees with the aim to produce highly competent and knowledgeable, well trained, skilled, critical thinker and proficient professionals called Pharmacist. Pharmacists are healthcare professionals who specialize in the right way to use, store, preserve, and provide medicine. Pharmacists work with other health care professionals to maximize health outcomes. Numerous studies have proven that the presence of a pharmacist on hospital rounds as a full member of the patient care team has been shown to prevent medication errors and reduce costs. 

Dr. Ziauddin Group of Hospitals is a high-standard tertiary care unit that has one of the greatest missions to provide a learning environment where a Pharmacist can acquire ample amount knowledge and can refine his/her clinical skills which not only enhances professional competency but also improves patient health outcomes.

Pharmacists also have enlightened their active role in the COVID’19 pandemic by providing pharmaceutical care to isolated patients and community services as frontline healthcare workers.

Back then it was still difficult to talk publicly about the subject. But the Internet was just coming into its own. Being bombarded with information booklets is what I remember most.

Also, this week I helped facilitate our regular  prostate cancer  support group in my  local cancer center . Something I have been doing for many years.

Before we knew it, we had got ...
