Message from the President

A Profession Ready for What Comes Next

Council continues to strengthen the regulatory framework that protects the public and supports registered persons in delivering safe, quality pharmaceutical care across South Africa, from the smallest rural pharmacy to the country’s largest hospital groups.

“Advancing pharmacy means advancing the standard of care every patient can expect, wherever they are in South Africa.”

Mr Mogologolo Phasha President, South African Pharmacy Council
