From 1777 to 1796, the Paris Pharmacists guild was deeply modified. In 1777, a Royal Declaration created the College of pharmacy which escaped abolition of all guilds, in 1791, thanks to Eustache Livré, a member of the Constituent Assembly. The College's members, with the help of Antoine Fourcroy, founded the Free Paris Pharmacists Society and a Free School of Pharmacy, in 1796. In 1803, the School of Pharmacy and the Paris Pharmacy Society replaced these two establishments.
