In continuation of the campaign launched by the Cairo Pharmacists Syndicate to completely dispose of expired medications in accordance with Ministerial Resolution No. 47 of 2025 issued by the Egyptian Drug Authority, the Cairo Pharmacists Syndicate held a meeting that included the Cairo Pharmacists Syndicate Council, the Egyptian Drug Authority Cairo Branch, some pharmacy owners, as well as Ibn Sina Company, Dr. Hamdy Mahmoud, Cairo Region Manager, and some branch managers at Ibn Sina Company. Dr. Mohamed El Sheikh, a member of the Senate and Head of the Cairo Syndicate, welcomed the attendees and stressed the need to enter data and fill out the required information before the end of May so that we can dispose of all expired medications. He stressed that the committee formed in the Cairo Pharmacists Syndicate and the Syndicate Council in full, in the presence of the Head of the Pharmacies Committee, Dr. Reda Murad Fahim will make every effort in the coming period to help all pharmacies fill out the forms. Those unable to do so can send a statement of their medications. He emphasized the change in the dictation form to facilitate pharmacies from five to 15 categories. He emphasized that the Syndicate Council is continuously working to remove all obstacles facing pharmacies, as a responsible employee has been assigned to fill out the entry forms. Dr. Mahfouz Ramzy again briefly explained the data entry process and highlighted the obstacles pharmacists faced in this regard, in the presence of all stakeholders. He emphasized that the success of this decision is inevitable and binding on all, as it is a matter of drug safety. The committee has compiled all the points that will help implement the decision in its entirety, without conditions or restrictions, within the framework of the executive regulations. They will submit them to the General Committee of the Egyptian Drug Authority. The need to implement Resolution 47 was also emphasized, which includes a specific percentage of monthly returns for each distribution company, as the distribution company system still accepts shipments from some manufacturing companies but not others. The Wash Out decision system must be continuously implemented for monthly returns.
