Established in 1868, the Canadian Pharmacists Journal (CPJ) is Canada's oldest continuously published periodical.
[2] Shuttleworth continued in his position as editor until 1896 when the journal merged with the Pharmacal Gazette of Montreal.
[2] Early issues contained a wide variety of topics which included social and legal notices, compounding formulae, and commentary on pharmacy issues of the day.
In 1957, a new "scientific section" edited by Mervyn Huston was introduced.
In June 2005 it was redesigned, changed its name to the Canadian Pharmacists Journal and relaunched with a stronger focus on pharmacy practice research.
