It's nothing to do with the Royal Pharmaceutical Society.

Despite claims to the contrary pharmacists aren't qualified
to comment on the efficacy or otherwise of any medicine.
The fact that they may do so, is purely incidental.

Their job is to dispense any medicines prescribed by
a qualified doctor in the precise dosages indicated...

There are also medicines that are not on prescription, but which may
only be sold in a pharmacy, when the pharmacist is present. They are
identified by the packaging having a letter P in a rectangular box, as
opposed to the POM of a prescription only medicine. Pharmacists are
supposed to satisfy themselves that a pharmacy medication is being
correctly supplied.

and the pharmacist in a nearby shop gave me a flu injection last winter.
