Farmacihistoriskt museum
At Apotekarsocieteten’s museum, you can explore the history of medicines and pharmacies from the 17th century to the present day. The exhibits showcase the manufacturing and sale of pharmaceuticals and illustrate how perceptions of health, disease, healing, and relief have evolved over time.
The museum is located in the courtyard building at Wallingatan 24.
NEPI
The NEPI Foundation operates on behalf of the Swedish Parliament to promote the monitoring of medication use and its effects on the population. The goal is to share knowledge and enhance the use of pharmacoepidemiology, ensuring that we see the person behind the medicine, not just the patient behind the pill.
