This text is a comprehensive guide to law and ethics for pharmacy practice in the UK.

It includes information on the law that affects the practice of pharmacy in the UK, complete coverage of the pharmacy undergraduate and pre- registration syllabus and British law relating to medicines and poisons. This tenth edition has been substantially updated in connection with the advent of the GPhC and the new PLB, and revision of the Medicines Act.
