How We Started

Our Story

Pharmacy & Acute Care University was founded by clinical pharmacy professionals who recognized a persistent gap in pharmacy-specific education. While countless continuing education platforms existed, nearly all of them were built for physicians first — with pharmacy content as an afterthought.

We set out to change that. PACU was created with a pharmacy-first perspective, ensuring that every course, literature summary, and board review resource is developed by pharmacists, for pharmacists. Our content speaks directly to the clinical challenges pharmacy professionals face every day — from drug dosing nuances and pharmacokinetic considerations to formulary management and interdisciplinary care.

What started as a focused literature curation service — helping busy clinicians stay current on the studies that matter most — has grown into a comprehensive education platform. Today, PACU offers expert-led courses, structured board certification prep, specialty-track learning paths, and our flagship PACULit literature intelligence engine, all under one roof.

Based in Fort Mill, South Carolina, our team remains deeply connected to clinical practice. We are pharmacists who teach, researchers who practice, and educators who never stop learning. Every decision we make is guided by a simple question: “Does this help pharmacy professionals deliver better patient care?”
