National Pharmacy Week is held the third full week of October, October 17 to 23 in 2027. Hospitals, health systems and pharmacy chains use it to thank pharmacists and pharmacy technicians. In a hospital the team is small; in a chain it can mean thousands of people across hundreds of stores.
Gift ideas by budget
| Budget per person | Ideas |
|---|---|
| Under $25 | Insulated tumbler, embroidered beanie, pharmacy themed t-shirt |
| $25 to $50 | Embroidered quarter zip or fleece vest, insulated lunch bag |

Hospital pharmacy teams
Include technicians, residents and night pharmacists. A quarter zip or vest is practical over scrubs and in cold pharmacy areas.
Pharmacy chains and many locations
For chains, ship gifts to each store in one labeled carton with the count, so store managers can hand them out the same day.
Branding
Keep the logo small on outerwear. For a team t-shirt, a pharmacy themed design gets worn more than a plain logo.
