Once the collaboration event has gone live, select pharmacies under the association will issue medical diaries with the special design. However, these books will not be available for personal sale or distribution. The pharmacies will professionally handle the book in the same manner as regular drug notebooks, and Imagica Infos is also discouraging people from asking the facilities about the specific design.

The collaboration-themed medical diary will feature an anime illustration of The Apothecary Diaries‘ protagonist Maomao on the front cover, with the back cover also adding Jinshi. A sample image showing both sides of the book’s cover is also available to view right below:

The exclusive medical diary themed after The Apothecary Diaries will be available in pharmacies across Japan in limited numbers starting from March 2025. This collaboration will be based on the anime adaptation of the 2011 novel that started airing in 2023. The second season of the same anime launched in January 2025, and it is still ongoing as of February 2025.
