President's Message:-
PCI as a pharmacy educationist regulatory body has realized the need to strengthen and upgrade the pharmacy curriculum to produce competent pharmacist workforce which is able to meet the growing demands of the industry and community. As a step towards this direction PCI has proposed some amendments to the Pharmacy Act which have been submitted to the Health Ministry for approval. Major amendments proposed are the imperative need of the pharmacy education to be regulated by PCI alone to avoid duplicacy and dichotomy and also the upgradation of minimum registrable qualification from Diploma to Degree in pharmacy beside the introduction of “Pharmacy Practice Regulations” for the first time in the country. This will certainly revolutionize the pharmacy education system to meet the growing demand of profession by ensuring the competent workforce. To ascertain the views of the Pharmacy professionals on the proposed amendments, PCI convened a special meeting of all the stakeholders like representatives of Drug Control Deptts., Academics, Chemists & Druggist Associations, IPA, IHPA, MCI etc. with Health Ministry officials. The proposed amendments were appreciated and supported by all the Pharmacy professionals citing the amendments as futuristic and very well envisaged. PCI has been actively pursuing the matter with the Health Ministry. In November 2006, a presentation highlighting the salient features of the amendment to Pharmacy Act was made to Hon’ble Health Minister. PCI has also forwarded a note to the Health Ministry for consideration of the “Committee of Secretaries” to solve the dual regulation of pharmacy education by PCI & AICTE.
