Pharm.D is a doctorate already right? I would think your considerarion wouldve the discipline you intend to have another Ph.D in. I mean if it is something not related, you would more likely need to have a Msc before. My 2 cents bro.

Jman06:
I know that this is possible in the developed countries and even in India, China and some other Asian countries.
Pharmacists with Pharm.D degree can proceed directly to do PhD in areas like Biopharmaceuticals, Pharmacology, and Pharmacognosy without MSc. But being aware that Nigeria is a country where things go in reverse order, I doubt if it would be possible for one with Pharm.D to be admitted directly to PhD without going the MSc route.

Please anybody that has an idea on this should enlighten me. Thanks in advance

Yeah, it's a professional doctorate degree but different from PhD
