Socio-demographic groups and factors correlating with a higher level of pharmaceutical literacy have been identified. Additional conditions are formulated that should be taken into account in the development of pharmaceutical literacy and the formation of pharmaceutical competence of the adult population. Organizational technologies relevant to the goals of pharmaceutical education have been identified and systematized. The key positions of effective pharmaceutical education practice have been identified. Potential mechanisms for the organization of pharmaceutical education are presented, taking into account the realization of the professional potential of pharmaceutical workers. A multilevel model for the formation of pharmaceutical competence of the adult population has been developed.
