well that question is a very broad one. but will try to answer to the best of my knowledge...from a pharmacist's point of view
well simply put, a Doctor is someone trained in the art of diagonosing illnesses and the prescription of appropriate medications fo. such illnesses, including the conduction of surgery where needed. the serios doctors can tell u more ...not dose medical school dtopouts making useless comments above.

however, a PHARMACIST is a professional that is well trained in the art of:
* drug manufacturing and compounding

*reviewing a doctor's prescription for possible errors and drug-drug interactions dat may be fatal to the patient, and then taking approprite actions when such are discovered. (only God knows how many patients would have died from wrong prescriptions and drug-drug interactions but for the timely intervention of pharmacists...only God and the Pharmacists knw.)


*managing health comodities, their storage , preservation etc. and makin sure that they are readily available for the patient's use. (of what use is a prescription to the patient when the drugs are not available??)

* helping patients manage their medication costs (pharmacoeconomics) especialy for those with long term disease conditions. (if only u knew how expensive drugs can be you will apreciate this more)

other roles include:

* providing information about medications to patients, their adverse effects and also ensuring patients' compliance with medications. (a good number of patients do not comply with their medication regime leading to wastage and resistance in some cases)

* prescription roles in some countries of the world but not yet in nigeria.

infact the pharmacist is all about drugs...ANYTHING about drugs involves the pharmacist.

dts my little contribution.
those with more info can help. take care

A pharmacist has to fucking cram a million drug names and their uses.....




A doctor just has to carve up a cadaver into bits and display them in front of a boring old bastard....





Both are miserable angry
