The Faculty of Pharmacy was established on 12 October 1983 as one of the branches of the Faculty of Medical Sciences. Thereafter, a decree was issued to establish it as an independent Faculty with two branches (1 & 2) under No. 4142 on 13 October 1993 which were later merged into one in 1996.

The faculty mission is to secure higher education, conduct research in the specialization of pharmacy, and organize training courses and conferences for pharmacy personnel.

In 2022, HCERES granted the Faculty of Pharmacy academic accreditation for a period of five years starting in 2022.

The accreditation covered two-degree programs:

- Doctor of Pharmacy Diploma

- Doctor of Practice in Pharmacy Diploma

The Council based its decision on the standards of specialized and structured training provided by the faculty and its professional teaching team, in addition to the local and international partnerships established by the faculty with health institutions and organizations, research laboratories, and institutions involved in the pharmaceutical industry.

Two centers are affiliated to the Faculty:

National Center for the Quality of Medicine, Food, Water and Chemicals
