About

The Retail Chemist and Druggist Association (RCDA) is a registered organization representing both retail and wholesale medical stores. Established with the slogan "By the Retailers, For the Retailers," this association aims to unite pharmacists and drugstore owners in the face of the challenges posed by the evolving retail medical field.
