About Pharmacy Law

Pharmacy Law, a bimonthly newsletter from the University at Buffalo School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, covers pharmacy practice laws in New York State.

Cooper, Pharm.D., a long-time faculty member at the University at Buffalo School of Pharmacy and a member of the New York State Board of Pharmacy. It was his dream to bring current, concise, accurate information to practicing pharmacists.
