Which item is not among the amendments to RA 5527?

• A. RA 6138
• B. PD 498
• C. PD 1534
• D. RA 8504

Answer: (D)

The question tests knowledge of which laws actually modify the Pharmacy Law (RA 5527). Amendments to RA 5527 come from laws and presidential decrees that directly address the regulation and practice of pharmacy—things like licensure, scope of practice, pharmaceutical education standards, and dispensing rules. The items listed as amendments were enacted to refine or expand how pharmacy is governed, so they’re all aligned with RA 5527’s topic. RA 6138, PD 498, and PD 1534 are laws/decrees that fall within this realm, making them amendments to RA 5527 because they modify aspects of the profession’s regulation. RA 8504, on the other hand, does not pertain to pharmacy regulation, so it does not amend RA 5527.
