Cairo Pharmacists Syndicate Warns Against Drug Promotion on Social Media

The Cairo Pharmacists Syndicate has warned against the promotion of medicines through social media, declaring its full support for efforts to tighten oversight of Egypt’s pharmaceutical market.

The syndicate backed the Egyptian Drug Authority’s work to strengthen market controls and tackle unlicensed and misleading advertisements.

Its warning highlighted social media as an area of concern in drug promotion, alongside the broader push to curb unauthorized advertising.

The statement placed the syndicate firmly behind the authority’s regulatory efforts, with a focus on oversight of both the medicine market and the advertising used to promote its products.
