A nuclear pharmacy is a specialized branch of pharmacy that involves the preparation, dispensing, and safe handling of radiopharmaceuticals—medications that contain radioactive isotopes—used for diagnostic imaging, therapy, and other medical treatments in nuclear medicine. Nuclear pharmacies are dedicated to ensuring the precise and safe use of radioactive drugs, which are typically used for imaging purposes (such as PET scans or SPECT scans) or for therapeutic applications (such as radioactive iodine therapy for thyroid cancer). The nuclear pharmacist is responsible for the appropriate preparation, quality control, and distribution of these radiopharmaceuticals, ensuring both safety and efficacy.
The Pharmacy500 is awarded to 500 pharmacy supply chain businesses and associations that significantly impacted dispensing pharmacies in the U.S. over the past year.
