About Us

Nepal Pharmaceutical Association (NPA) has played a pivotal role in the formation of Nepal Pharmacy Council (NPC). The NPA’s exercise for preparation of draft of NPC Act took momentum after implementation of National Drug Policy 1995 (B.S. 2051) that clearly spelled out for the policy strategy (Section 4.4c) aiming to promulgate legislative measures to register pharmacy manpower engaged in the pharmacy profession. The draft prepared by NPA was discussed in the national seminar entitled “Need of Pharmacy Council for the Development of Pharmacy Services in Nepal” on 10 April 1997 (28 Chaitra 2053) on the auspicious occasion of NPA’s silver jubilee. The draft recommended by the seminar was submitted to the Ministry of Health and Population for further action.

As the healthcare landscape of Nepal continues to evolve, the role of pharmacists has become more pivotal than ever. Pharmacists are not only custodians of medicines but are also key contributors to ensuring rational drug use, patient safety, and overall public health. In alignment with our commitment to strengthen the pharmacy profession, Nepal Pharmacy Council stands dedicated to advancing pharmacy education, regulation, and practice standards in Nepal. Together, we must uphold the ethics, professionalism, and responsibilities that our noble profession demands. Let us work hand in hand to uplift the pharmacy sector, enhance professional competencies, and ensure that every pharmacist becomes a trusted and integral part of the healthcare team. The challenges ahead are significant, but so are the opportunities to make a meaningful impact on the health of our people. Together, we can build a stronger, more respected, and impactful pharmacy profession in Nepal. Thank you.
