Pharmacists should be empowered to lead evidence-based pharmaceutical product selection, including generic substitution and therapeutic interchange, to improve access to medicines, strengthen health system resilience and optimise patient outcomes, according to a new FIP Statement of Policy released today: https://www.fip.org/file/6654.

Replacing FIP’s 2018 policy on pharmacists’ authority in pharmaceutical product selection, the statement reflects developments in regulatory science, the growing use of generic and biosimilar medicines, digital health technologies, medicine shortages and the need for sustainable, people-centred health care.

The policy recognises pharmaceutical product selection as a key clinical responsibility of pharmacists. Where permitted by national legislation, pharmacists should be able to apply evidence-based clinical judgement to optimise medicine use, maintain continuity of care and support equitable access to treatment.

NEPS Welcomes Arunachal Government’s Swift Action on Pharmacy Act Enforcement

Guwahati, 2 August 2026: The North East Pharmaceutical Society (NEPS) has welcomed the prompt response of the Government of Arunachal Pradesh to its memorandum seeking strict enforcement of the Drugs and Cosmetics Act, 1940 and the Pharmacy Act, 1948 following reported violations in the State.

At a meeting chaired by Hon’ble Health & Family Welfare Minister Shri Biyuram Wahge with representatives of the Arunachal Unemployed Registered Pharmacists’ Association (AURPA), the Government informed that an executive order has already been issued directing immediate verification of compliance with Sections 32(2) and 42(1), with reports to be submitted by 14 August 2026.

The Government also assured action on key issues, including recruitment of registered pharmacists and drug control personnel, priority examination of clinical pharmacist posts, operationalization of the State Drug Testing Laboratory, and strict enforcement of mandatory registration of Government-employed pharmacists with the Arunachal Pradesh Pharmacy Council.

NEPS appreciates the positive and time-bound approach adopted by the Government of Arunachal Pradesh and expresses confidence that these measures will strengthen regulatory compliance, safeguard public health, and uphold professional pharmacy practice in the State. The Society reiterates its commitment to extend all possible technical and professional support for effective implementation of the statutory provisions.
