Welcome to
Pharmacy in Practice
At Pharmacy in Practice we have gone back to our editorial roots. We have slowed things down and will publish insight and opinions on the UK pharmacy scene.
Podcast
The Pharmacy in Practice podcast includes conversations with a wide range of pharmacy-related folk. We love to add context and move beyond the headline.
Insight
We publish insightful articles written by industry experts. Occasionally we will run a series when we delve into a particular topic and explore all sides of the issue.
Conference
We now host an annual conference. The theme last year was ‘The Future Pharmacist’. The conference is available on the conference page below and on the podcast feed.
