    The Oath of a Pharmacist was first developed in 1983 by the AACP Board of Directors and revised in 1994, 2007, and 2021. The current Oath of a Pharmacist was adopted by AACP and APhA in November 2021 and reflects the organizations' commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-racism.

    Sincerely,
