The Royal College of Pharmacy has ended its sponsorship relationship with Teva Pharmaceuticals, an Israeli drug firm, following pressure from pro-Palestine activists, The Guardian reported. The move marks the second major UK health body to cut ties with the company over concerns regarding its "activities."
The decision came after campaigners raised objections to the pharmaceutical firm's operations. Details of the specific concerns cited by the college were not disclosed beyond reference to Teva's "activities."
