About
Good Pharmacy Practice (GPP) – Indian Standards
Course Introduction
About this course
Good Pharmacy Practice (GPP) refers to the professional standards and guidelines that ensure pharmacists deliver safe, effective, and patient-centered pharmaceutical services. In India, GPP is aligned with the standards recommended by the Pharmacy Council of India (PCI) and international guidelines such as those of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP). These standards emphasize ethical practice, responsible dispensing, rational use of medicines, patient counseling, and continuous professional development. This course provides a structured understanding of Indian GPP standards, enabling pharmacy professionals and students to enhance their competence in delivering quality pharmaceutical care in community and hospital pharmacy settings.
Good Pharmacy Practice (GPP) provides the structured framework that turns day-to-day pharmacy operations into safe, ethical, and patient-centred practice — aligned with the Indian Pharmacy Act, Pharmacy Council of India guidelines, and global pharmacy standards.
This course builds working competence in GPP and Indian pharmacy standards — covering the foundational principles, dispensing practices, ethical responsibilities, and the regulatory expectations that define safe pharmacy practice in India.
🎯 Built for clinical readiness. Concise, structured, and skill-focused — designed to translate directly into safer, more confident clinical practice.
