Train and build a career as a licensed Pharmacist. Pharmacists dispense drugs prescribed by physicians and other health practitioners and provide information to patients about medications and their use. They advise physicians and other health practitioners on the selection, dosages, interactions, and side effects of medications.
The study course allows for learning all the topics on Pharmacy practice and the training that is needed.
Pharmacists must understand the use, composition, and clinical effects of drugs. Compounding "the actual mixing of ingredients to form powders, tablets, capsules, ointments, and solutions" is only a small part of a pharmacist’s practice, because most medicines are produced by pharmaceutical companies in a standard dosage and drug delivery form.
