The Pharmacy Services and Drug Control (PS&DC) in Islamabad has told pharmacists who are applying for, or already working under, a drug sale licence to check that no other licence has been issued in their name anywhere in Pakistan.
According to an advisory from the authority, drug sale licences issued by provincial and territorial bodies can be traced digitally through its system.
PS&DC has launched a crackdown on such violations and has urged pharmacists to follow the law and uphold professional ethics to avoid legal consequences.
However, the advisory said that voluntarily disclosing an existing licence will not lead to legal action. PS&DC Islamabad also reiterated its commitment to professionalism, regulatory compliance and public health protection.
