The Pharmacy of the Eastern Vaud Hospitals (French: Pharmacie des hôpitaux de l'Est lémanique, PHEL) is an inter-hospital pharmacy constituted as a nonprofit organization on 1 January 1984 by seven regional hospitals in the eastern part of the canton of Vaud, and considered of public interest.[1][2][3] It was the second of its kind in Switzerland.
In total, the regional hospitals of the canton of Vaud have set up three similar pharmacies to supply them with medicines and provide a local pharmaceutical assistance.[4] Following the creation of the Pharmacy of the Eastern Vaud Hospitals, the Pharmacie Interhospitalière de la Côte (PIC) in Morges was created in 1996, and then the Pharmacie des Hôpitaux du Nord Vaudois et de la Broye (PHNVB) in 2011 in Yverdon-les-Bains.[4][5]
