Internet Pharmacy Accreditation |
 |
Welcome to the internet pharmacy accreditation site of the Pharmaceutical Society of New Zealand (Incorporated). This programme has been introduced to officially recognise New Zealand pharmacy sites that meet the prescribed professional standards for operating on the internet.
On application, sites have been reviewed and accredited by the Pharmaceutical Society, which is the professional body representing pharmacists in New Zealand.
To be accredited, a pharmacy must comply with the ethical and legislative requirements and quality standards of a licensed pharmacy. In addition internet sites displaying the accreditation seal must demonstrate compliance with patient rights to privacy and confidentiality, compliance with codes and legislative requirements for the advertising of medicines and the provision of factual and understandable information about all medicines advertised. The site must also provide the opportunity for meaningful consultation between patient and pharmacist.
