World Pharmacists Day
World Pharmacists Day on September 25 is a celebration of every pharmacist, pharmaceutical scientist, and others who are part of this field. Four million people are engaged in this profession around the globe. World Pharmacists Day is thus not only a welcome event, but it is also a crucial holiday to honor the role these guys play in improving global health outcomes. The day is marked by events and activities sponsored by various governmental and non-governmental organizations. Globally, they all have one common goal — to increase awareness about pharmacists and their roles.
History of World Pharmacists Day
The ancient art of pharmacy probably began when someone somewhere first thought of applying the juice from leaves to heal a wound. There have also been Greek legends written centuries ago that spoke of gods being apothecaries or pharmacists. The Greek god of healing, Asclepius, delegated the compounding of his remedies to Hygieia, his apothecary or pharmacist.
For the longest time, healing and pharmacy went hand-in-hand and were often thought of as the same practice. The line between pharmacy and medicine began to be defined by the eighth century and was firmly established by the time the 17th century rolled along. Now, physicians could no longer prepare medications for their patients themselves. The field transformed yet again with the onslaught of World War II. New drugs were constantly introduced into the market, and the role of the pharmacist became more defined than ever.
Today’s pharmacist performs multiple vital duties. Their tasks include identifying and providing people with the right medication, overseeing stocking and restocking of medicines, and staying ahead of medicine expiry dates. This is probably why the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) established this day to honor all pharmacists. The premier global body to represent all pharmacists and pharmaceutical scientists, the FIP aims to support the pharmacist network and the development of this profession. The reason behind the date for the annual celebrations can also be traced back to the FIP. According to the founders of this day, they wanted to honor the organization that was doing so much for pharmacists. This is why they picked the date the FIP was established — September 25, 1912.

5 Cool Facts About Pharmacists
First-world pharmacists
Many pharmacists were famous people
The first commercial drug
The first pharmacy also sold traditional remedies
Ginger ale by accident
Around 90% of people in the U.S. live within five miles of a pharmacist — that's how many of these health professionals the country has.
Alexander Flemming (who discovered penicillin), Agatha Christie (world-famous crime author), and Hubert Humphrey (38th Vice President of the U.S.), are only some famous names who have also been pharmacists.
Pharmacists began selling the first mass-produced, pre-packaged drug called 'antipyrine' in 1883; by the 1900s, most medicines were sold by pharmacies this way.
Louis Dufilho, Jr., America's first licensed pharmacist, opened a pharmacy in New Orleans that sold Voodoo remedies, opium, and leeches, alongside traditional medicines.
A pharmacist named James Vernor was creating a mixture to calm the stomach when he accidentally made what would then be known as one of America's oldest soft drinks — 'Vernors Ginger Ale.'
Why We Love World Pharmacists Day
They're making the world richer
They're the most accessible
They make the world better
More than four million pharmacists worldwide had reportedly boosted the revenue of this market to around 1204.8 billion U.S.D! That's a big number, and it looks like it'll keep growing. We — and many governments, we're sure — love this positive growth.
Of all healthcare professionals, pharmacists are one of the easiest to get to. With a huge population of these professionals present worldwide, they have the potential and the opportunity to help people as soon as they are needed.
They readily use their expertise, knowledge, and skills to help us extract the best use from our medicines. Pharmacists are always ready to help, which is why we love that there's a special day dedicated to them.

Sneak peak:
Before
May 30th, 1889
Isabelle could not think straight, there was too much going on at once. Thunder bellowed through the house. She was scrambling together all that she could with the limited visibility she had in the dark room. She let out a huff, her breath appearing before her. Too many thoughts were running through her mind at once but none of them were loud enough to hear.
All of a sudden a loud bang was let off in the distance.
She looked up for a second but realised quickly that she had no time to waste and desperately grabbed for her stuff. Eventually, she managed to get everything packed and was about to run out of her bedroom when she realized. “Shit” she breathed out. She had almost left her most important possessions.
She dropped her bag and ran straight to the bay window, fiddling around with the wooden panels under the cushioning. That is when two boys ran into the room, one her age and one slightly younger. “Oh thank god you’re okay, they are in the main house we have to go, now!” The older one cried.
Isabelle looked back to the panel and decided to leave it. Hoping that one day she would return. She ran to the door and grabbed her case with one hand and take the older boy’s hand as they ran through the house.
“We need to go out the back” He muttered, dragging two others to the back of the house and breaking the door open. The three of them ran out of the house towards the woods. A scream of a young girl rang out from the larger house. The three of them stopped in their tracks at the mouth of the woods.
The boy looked at Isabelle with remorse. No words needed to be said, she knew what he was thinking, she shook her head, feeling her eyes well up. “Jacob no it’s too dangerous, they’ll kill you” She cried. He placed both of his hands on her shoulders. “Take Peter and run, run far, and don’t look back” He instructed. “Jacob” her voice came out as a whisper.
“Promise me you won’t come back” he demanded.
“I can’t lose you,” she responded. “We will find each other again” He kissed her forehead. “I swear” Isabelle leaned into his touch. “Now run” he stepped away from them. “RUN!” He yelled before running to the house. Isabelle froze in place, her brother then tugged at her arm “Let’s go” he said, breaking her trance.
So they ran, and they ran, and they ran.
They eventually managed to catch a ride in a carriage that happened to be passing by on the other side of the woods. It was then that it hit her.
She had just lost everything.

La Fascinante Historia y el Impacto Mundial de Coca-Cola Historia de Coca-Cola: Orígenes y Evolución La historia de Coca-Cola comienza en 1886, cuando el farmacéutico John Stith Pemberton creó la fórmula en Atlanta, Georgia. Originalmente concebida como un jarabe tónico medicinal, la bebida se formuló con hojas de coca y nueces de cola. Su primer nombre fue "Pemberton’s French Wine Coca", pero debido a las leyes de prohibición del alcohol en Atlanta, la bebida se reformuló para excluir el alcohol. Evolución del Producto y la Marca El encargado de la contabilidad de Pemberton, Frank M. Robinson, es el verdadero artífice del nombre Coca-Cola y de su logotipo icónico. La bebida se vendió en su primer año en la farmacia Jacob's, alcanzando ventas modestas. Sin embargo, la perspicacia comercial de Asa Griggs Candler, quien adquirió los derechos de la fórmula en 1891, llevó a la bebida a una inmensa popularidad. Candler implementó estrategias de marketing innovadoras https://bit.ly/41SpfuQ

National Pharmacist Day
In the world of medication experts, these professionals ensure prescriptions are on point and everyone's health is in good hands.
National Pharmacist Day implores everyone to take a moment to think of all those important people who work as pharmacists. These are people whose job it is to mostly see people when they are sick with a cold or cough, need a refill on that asthma inhaler or even have a hangover. Or perhaps when someone has run out of toothpaste.
In any case, these helpful folks are able to assist people all over the world to feel better, even though they mostly only see them at their worst. So, now it’s time to learn about and celebrate National Pharmacist Day!
History of National Pharmacist Day
The practice of pharmacy got its start in ancient times when plants were used as drugs, and the practitioners might have been known as herbalists. Pharmacy even has roots in the Greek legend about Asclepius, the god of the art of healing.
The separation of physicians and pharmacy dates back to 1683 in Bruges, Belgium, where a law was enacted forbidding doctors from making medication for patients. By 1751, when Ben Franklin helped to establish the first hospital in the United States, Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia, the first pharmacy was created in the US.
The role of the pharmacists changed significantly after World War II when the science behind drug development began changing rapidly.
Today, the pharmacists aren’t not responsible for actually making the pills and potions, but for storing them, fulfilling them with correct dosage, offering advice to patients, watching for mistakes or drug interactions and other duties that are vital to the health of billions of people all over the world.
How To Celebrate National Pharmacist Day
Looking for ways to get involved with National Pharmacists Day? Here are some great ideas to get started:
Visit a Pharmacist Just to Thank Them
Know a Pharmacist or a student of Pharmacy? Well, get out there and thank them on this important day.
In fact, perhaps on this special day, National Pharmacists Day, it would be a delightful idea to take a moment to visit a pharmacy with a smile on your face and a healthy bounce to your step – it’s certain to be a surprise to them! Pop up to the counter without a need for a medical refill or to buy cough syrup. Simply step up and tell them that it’s National Pharmacists Day and they deserve to be thanked!
Learn Some Important Facts About Pharmacists
Not sure what the person wearing that white coat does? Here are some interesting facts that might help people to understand a bit better:
Pharmacists Hold Doctorate Degrees At least in the United States, since the year 2000, all practicing pharmacists must hold a Pharm. D. (Doctor of Pharmacy Degree). In addition, they complete 1-3 years of residency and fellowship training.
Pharmacists Can Administer Vaccines All 50 of the United States allow pharmacists to administer at least some vaccines. Annual flu shots are the most common immunizations that pharmacists and pharmacy technicians can administer.
Pharmacists Help with Medication Management When a patient is seeing several doctors, particularly for chronic conditions, it can get confusing when they are taking a variety of different medications. Pharmacists offer Medication Therapy Management (MTM) to help patients optimize their drug therapy resulting in improved outcomes.
Pharmacists Are Highly Accessible While getting to a doctor may be difficult or far away, 90% of Americans live within 5 miles of a pharmacy.

Coca-Cola: From Pharmacist's Tonic to Global Icon
Origin Story Coca-Cola’s journey began on May 8, 1886, in Atlanta, Georgia, when Dr. John Stith Pemberton, a pharmacist, created a unique syrup. Seeking a remedy for his morphine addiction, Pemberton concocted a mixture of coca leaf extract and kola nut, which he initially marketed as a medicinal tonic. The first glass of Coca-Cola was sold at Jacobs’ Pharmacy, where it was mixed with carbonated…

John Stith Pemberton - El Inventor de Coca-Cola 🥤✨
John Stith Pemberton, nacido el 8 de julio de 1831 en Knoxville, Georgia, Estados Unidos 🇺🇸, es conocido mundialmente como el inventor de la bebida Coca-Cola. Su creación ha tenido un impacto duradero en la industria de bebidas y la cultura popular global.
Pemberton, un farmacéutico de profesión, buscaba desarrollar una bebida medicinal que ayudara a aliviar sus dolores tras haber sido herido en la Guerra Civil Americana. En 1886, en su laboratorio en Atlanta, Georgia, Pemberton creó un jarabe a base de extracto de hojas de coca y nuez de cola, mezclado con agua carbonatada. Inicialmente, la bebida se comercializó como un tónico medicinal llamado "French Wine Coca."
Cuando Atlanta implementó la prohibición del alcohol en 1886, Pemberton modificó su fórmula para crear una bebida no alcohólica. El resultado fue Coca-Cola, una bebida que rápidamente ganó popularidad por su sabor único y refrescante. El nombre y el icónico logotipo de Coca-Cola fueron creados por el socio de Pemberton, Frank M. Robinson.
Aunque Pemberton vendió los derechos de su fórmula a varios socios debido a problemas financieros y de salud, su invención sentó las bases para la que se convertiría en una de las marcas más reconocidas y valiosas del mundo. Coca-Cola sigue siendo un símbolo de innovación y éxito comercial.
John Stith Pemberton falleció el 16 de agosto de 1888, pero su legado perdura en cada botella de Coca-Cola disfrutada alrededor del mundo.

The History of Coca Cola
To get an understanding of the Coca Cola branding I went all the ay back and had a look at the history of the brand and how it was first made. I made some bullet points of the important information.
Created in Atlanta, Georgia on 8th May 1886 by Dr John Stith Pemberton who was a local pharmacist.
Dr Pemberton made the syrup where he sampled it at Jacobs’ Pharmacy, the feedback he received was “excellent”, so he started selling it for five cents a glass as a soda fountain drink.
The drink was a mix of carbonated water and the new syrup mixture that was described as “Delicious and Refreshing”. This is still a theme that is used today for Coca-Cola.
Frank M Robinson, who is Dr Pemberton’s partner and bookkeeper, he thought that “the two cs would look well in advertising”. He then created the hand drawn Coca-Cola logo which is still the same to this day and is easily recognisable anywhere around the world.
To advertise the drink to the public they used hand-painted oilcloth signs with the Coca-Cola logo in large. It also had the word “Drink” on it to tell the public that it was a new drink for soda fountain refreshment.
