Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee

A Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee (P&T Committee) is a group of healthcare professionals that includes doctors, pharmacists, and other experts. Their main role is to evaluate and make decisions about which medications should be available in a hospital or healthcare system. They review the effectiveness, safety, and costs of various drugs, ensuring that treatments align with the best medical practices and patient needs. By guiding drug selection and usage policies, the committee helps improve patient care and control healthcare costs.
