Afifa Amer is a clinical pharmacist based in London, United Kingdom, with more than five years of experience across clinical research and pharmaceutical services. She earned her Doctor of Pharmacy from Akhtar Saeed Medical College.
Her work centres on medication management, patient counselling and treatment optimisation — the practical questions of which drug, at what dose, alongside what else, and what to watch for. It is the part of healthcare where small details carry real consequences, and where the gap between a leaflet and an actual answer is widest.
That is why medication content is reviewed separately at CollectedMed. A physician can tell you what a condition is; a pharmacist is the person best placed to check what an article says about interactions, side effects, contraindications and safe use. Afifa reviews our coverage of prescription and over-the-counter medications, supplement interactions, and anything that tells a reader what to take or how to take it.
She also works in skincare and aesthetics, and brings that perspective to content on topical treatments and cosmetic products.
