“It’s World Pharmacist Day today, and as Superintendent Pharmacist here at NowPatient, it is an opportune time to celebrate the great and varied work of Pharmacists here and across the world.
The theme for this year’s World Pharmacists Day is ‘Safe and effective medicines for all, which aims to promote pharmacists’ crucial role in safeguarding a patient’s safety, through improving medicine use and reducing medication errors, something which we pride ourselves on here at NowPatient.
We may be a digital Pharmacy, but the service we offer and deliver is comparable to a high-street Pharmacy, and we are always happy to answer any questions you may have.”

About NowPatient's Editorial Process
- Written by clinical authors
- Reviewed every 2 years
- Conflicts of interest declared
NowPatient's medical content is selected by a panel of practising clinicians (pharmacists, doctors and allied healthcare professionals) and researched by an in-house team of writers who all hold scientific or clinical backgrounds. Sponsorship and conflicts of interest are openly declared.
Every article is peer-reviewed by a clinician for clinical accuracy, evidence base and accessibility, including consideration of the particular characteristics set out in the UK Equality Act 2010. Only then is it released for publication against fixed placement guidelines.
All content is cycle reviewed (typically every two years) and updated sooner if evidence, guidelines or a complaint require it. Changes follow a formal change control procedure and are reflected in the "last updated" date on each article. NowPatient is governed by MiHealth; UK pharmacy services are provided by MiHealth Pharmacy (GPhC 1036487).
