The first case of COVID-19 was announced at the end of year 2019, and later many cases were identified worldwide. In Saudi Arabia, the first case was announced on 2 March 2020. To prevent the spread of this pandemic disease, many precautionary actions were taken by Saudi government. One of these actions was closing public and private schools and universities and transfer the educational activities to virtual platforms. All colleges of Pharmacy in Saudi Arabia, whether the 21 public or the eight private ones, were affected by those sudden transitions and their responses varied according to their preparedness levels. Here we shared our experience in king Saud University in the curricular components of pharmacy school that includes classroom teaching, laboratory teaching, experiential training, assessment, and extracurricular activity and student support during COVID-19 compulsory lockdown. Lastly, we presented the lesson learned toward pharmacy education from COVID-19 pandemic.

2019 年底宣布了第一例 COVID-19 病例，随后在全球范围内发现了许多病例。沙特阿拉伯于 2020 年 3 月 2 日宣布首例病例。为了防止这种大流行疾病的传播，沙特政府采取了许多预防措施。其中一项行动是关闭公立和私立学校和大学，并将教育活动转移到虚拟平台。沙特阿拉伯的所有药学院，无论是 21 所公立药学院还是 8 所私立药学院，都受到了这些突然转变的影响，他们的反应因准备程度而异。在这里，我们分享了我们在沙特国王大学药学院课程组成部分的经验，包括课堂教学、实验室教学、体验式培训、评估以及COVID-19强制封锁期间的课外活动和学生支持。最后，我们介绍了从 COVID-19 大流行中汲取的药学教育经验教训。
