2 Credit(s)

Pharmacy law is a basic administrative course which is required as a part of the pharmacy curriculum. The primary purpose of this class is to prepare students to take and pass the law portions of their board examinations and state licensure processes. We will examine the nature and scope of the law with focus on how the law impacts and regulates the practice of pharmacy. Students will learn the governmental framework within which pharmacy is practiced, as well as acquire an understanding of the laws applicable to pharmacists. These legal principles are intended to allow pharmacists to protect the public interest, including their patients’ well-being. Students will become prepared to examine and analyze these laws and apply these principles to the daily decision-making in the practice of pharmacy.
