The Texas Pharmacy Association was formed as the Texas Pharmaceutical Association (TPA) in the May 1879 in the back of a pharmacy in Dallas, Texas. The name was updated in 1994 to incorporate the idea of pharmacy as a multidisciplinary field that combines a tangible drug product with an intangible cognitive service, which has been developed to be known as Medication Therapy Management. Today the TPA reaches out to almost 4,000 members of pharmacist, technicians, teachers, and others with an investment in pharmacy.
