About Us

The Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) is the national professional organisation for pharmacists in Australia. PSA was established by the state professional pharmaceutical societies in 1977, some of which had been in existence for over 100 years, and is a federation. The establishment of PSA provided the profession not only with a national identity, but an opportunity to more effectively regulate its affairs, to achieve better coordination in consultation and liaison with the Commonwealth Government, other professions and industry. The society is the leading advocacy organisation for pharmacists, influencing attitudes, opinions and policies through representation, networking, consultation and a range of publications and health promoting programs and resources.
