Irrespective of whether a uni will consider an EPQ, it's your actual A level grades that will be an issue as many unis specify minimum grades of B or above for the science requirements.
An EPQ is 28 points for an A*, 24 for an A, 20 for a B, etc. Are you confident of getting an A*?

Reading offers lower grades but i still think it’s something like BBB they ask for (if not higher)

It might be worth asking in this year's applicants thread to see if anyone has an offer that includes EPQ.

The majority of universities that do pharmacy have their entry requirements at AAB-ABB and an A/B in an EPQ will bring down your offer by a single grade generally (not sure about contextual).
To my knowledge the lowest offer you'll get will be BBB and they generally don't do UCAS points. You can get this offer at Reading if you make them your firm and get at least a B in your EPQ.
If you are a first year I would recommend asking your teachers to raise your predicted grades, find out if you're eligible for contextual, go through clearing or take a gap year and apply with your final a level grades. Just remember that your first year grades aren't your real grades and people go up multiple grades all the time especially.

When i last looked it’s under contextual offers, and an EPQ will bring your entry requirements down by one grade (unless it’s required) so if you was offered AAB then it would be ABB but if the website says you must have at least a B in this subject then it would only apply for one of the other subjects
