What Does It Take To Own A Pharmacy Store? by MercyMercy(f): 10:19pm On Feb 17, 2015
I did not study Pharmacy but Cell Biology and Genetics. I love things about health. Being a Medical Doctor was my aim but cut-off marks after three attempts made me go for an alternative course. Now that I am out of sch, I still av this passion for health.
Pls people, what will it take me to own a Pharmacy?

It's doesn't take much. Advise just get a work and serve as a pharmacy attendant in a well and reputable pharmacy within your locality, within few years you would be familiar with the job. I know someone without even a degree just ssce* but he knows everything about pharmaceutical. When you achieve your experience then you negotiate with your boss and then open a new branch but license under him and do attend some of their training and seminars.

The answer to your question depends on a number of factors. Where did you get your degree in Cell Biology? How long have you practiced? You would also need to show your NYSC discharge certificate or exemption certificate depending along with your degree certificate (of course) and then pay the required fees and you'll be registered. If you are really serious about it, Whenever you are in Abuja, a visit to the Pharmacist's Council will give you more specific details.

Good luck.

Its very simple. what you do is, get a person who is a certified pharmacist (i have so many of them, if you need any), then you can include him as a director of your pharmaceutical company for the purpose of registering it as a limited liability company.that is the requirement by the Corporate Affairs Commission. but if you want to avoid that, there is another way out, you can also register it as an enterprise (business name) and then, it can only be tagged a patent medicine company. either way, i will be willing to assist you to set up a pharmaceutical company.

Thanks for responding.
To your questions, I got my B.Sc Cell Biology from the University of Lagos and I will be going for my Nysc in May.
