THE COLLEGE OF PHARMACISTS OF BC (CPBC) IS CURRENTLY SEEKING PHARMACISTS, PHARMACY TECHNICIANS, AND MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC TO SERVE ON TWO OF OUR VOLUNTEER-DRIVEN COMMITTEES.
The Ministry of Health has acted to address the recreational use of buccal nicotine pouch products among youth. Effective February 7, 2024, these products will only be available behind the pharmacy counter and require consultation with a pharmacist before purchase, in order to prevent their misuse and inform buyers about the associated health risks.

During this period, eServices (which includes registration, renewals, Practice Review and PDAP portals) and Find a Pharmacy or Registrant on the College’s website will be unavailable .
