Pharmacy assistants are the only people authorised to help the pharmacy owner and the pharmacists assisting him/her in preparing and dispensing medicines for human and veterinary medicine to the public. They may administer certain vaccines under the supervision of a pharmacist. An order of the Minister for Health, issued after obtaining the opinion of the Haute Autorité de Santé, determines the list of vaccines covered by this paragraph, the list of persons likely to benefit from these vaccines and the conditions under which pharmacy assistants may administer these vaccines.
They carry out their duties under the responsibility and effective control of a pharmacist. They remain criminally liable.
