LAST week pharmacists around the globe celebrated their profession on World Pharmacists' Day.
Pharmacists around the world marked the day in their own way, some enjoyed cupcakes sharing the message of "safe and effective medicines for all", while others took the opportunity to highlight their medicines safety skills on social media.
Two Kiwi pharmacists attending the International Pharmaceutical Federation (FIP) Congress in Abu Dhabi took a slightly different approach, rewriting the lyrics to the theme tune of hit sitcom, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, and rapping on Twitter.
"Now this is a story all about how pharmacists came and turned the world upside-down.
"So we'd like to take a minute just sit right there, we'll rap about pharmacists just stay right here.
"Safe and effective medicines for all - without it your health will be poor.
"We need teamwork, collaboration, IPE, because together this leads to quality.
"Better see your pharmacist to keep healthy.
"We dispense good advice, meds and what you need.
"Advocacy, equity and R&D are a few things you get from FIP.
"It the 25th of Sep don't you see? It's World Pharmacist Day from two Kiwis in the UAE".
