Abstract

The history of the International Pharmaceutical Federation, founded in 1912, is traced from its origins in the series of International Pharmaceutical Congresses starting in 1865. The initiating event took place in the 6th Congress held in 1885 in Brussels, followed by the foundation after the 10th Congress, held in 1910, once again in Brussels.
