Not as an entry into another multinatuonal bro. I will keep telling you this. And there, they do proper job descriptions not market.
Compare registrars to fresh post nysc pharms in teaching hospitals mbok.
Any pharm prescribing is trying to act like a doctor, and indirectly, you are saying if you stick to dispensing, which is what pharmacy is, you won't make more.
Interesting.

Let's agree to disagree. In any institution where the health degree matter, doctors will earn more. Thanks.
the fvck are u yarning?Must all pharms work in hospitals and health institutions undecided undecided when there's Pharm industry to venture into that which is d most lucrative aspect of d profession.
Not all pharms are clinical pharmacist,many l re industrial while a lot are community pharms,pharmacy is way too diverse to limit d scope of this argument to hospitals.
A lot of pharmacists re in d industries where dey make it big,only few are in hospitals.
Yh,to someone who is shallow minded,myopic and has no modicum of idea about pharmacy,it's dispensing.


Like I said,if u have a problem with pharmacists prescribing,channel ur problem to even d docs in d ministry of health or d house of assembly and see d response you'll be given.they aren't trying to act as a doc bro, they're doing their job. grin grin

What a shame to keep arguing here. I am a doctor post internship. I got a job on d island that paid 100k 8-4pm no calls. And weekend job that paid 75k. I worked there between jan-ending of April. Till i went to NYSC camp in delta state. All my house job colleagues equally got engaged with one job or the other. It was not so with pharmacy interns we finished together, most couldn't easily get a PP space and those that got were being paid quite meagre salaries, many were crying for NYSC to come while we doctors saw NYSC as a distraction because we were gainfully engaged. A colleague of mine own one of d biggest pharmacy in bayelsa and is a doctor, there are also pharmacist that owns hospitals. The state i serve pay doctors 2ice other health workers and i've already found an extra hospital to cover. But generally most health professional pretend to be doctors but I've never seen a doctor pretend to be a pharmacist or nurse and its a global phenomenon. I write this not to demean any profession or knock out their arguments but to assert that most of their argument are not based on truth but envy. Wealth is not not synonymous with any proffession, no matter your u can generate surplus

bla bla bla.
You're a doctor,so it's not suprising you took sides.it's a fvcking lie.it's very easy for pharmacists to get a PP,the same can't be said for docs coz they're very many.That's a very blatant lie,I'm sure all docs viewing this are very aware of that fact.There are only 13 accredited school of pharmacy in Nigeria while every state has college of medicine including the private universities.it's very very easy for pharms to get placement for internship apparently because they aren't much,this can't be said for docs and I'm sure you know that.
I did my internship before IPPS started in FMC Abeokuta,then I was being paid 158K(8-4),my colleagues in national hospitals and neuropsychiatric hospital earn above that,after which I do go work as a local Pharm in a community pharmacy after d hospital day job,then my monthly pay was little close to 200k.
A pharmacy intern is on conhess 8 equivalent to Grade level 9,You may have to explain to me how a GL 9 earns a meagre amount
Why would one be crying for nysc to come when it's crystal clear you'll earn lesser compared to internship.
During my NTSC,it wasnt easy,The state maternity centre paid me 45K monthly(colleagues in industry earn well above that) in addition to d federal government's 19,800,I had to make my pay above 100k by working as a local Pharm in a community pharmacy.


I just don't know why you had to lie to substantiate your point bro.



But everyone knows it's easy for pharmacists to get placement than docs..
If a hospital is recruiting 150HO,it equivalently recruits 75K Pharm interns and med lab interns.
Docs are very many,nearly all private unis have a partially accredited medicine programme which makes it difficult for placement.
Same can't be said for pharmacists.

In which organisation?
You clearly don't understand what medical officer means.
A medical officer is post nysc, not doing residency
.
The fact you want to compare a higher officer to our lowest level says a lot. A registrar is sb who just finished nysc and gets residency.
If you ain't doing residency yet, you are a medical officer.

A pharmacist in my church opened a pharmacy, he is in fact d only trained pharmacist there, he employed OND holders payed them stipends and is teaching them how to dispense.

Only HO in FMC,teaching,neuropschiatric and national hospitals can earn above that figure I stated,same can't be said for the ones in government health centres,private hospitals,state hospitals and d Ministries.
Tell me a HO in a state hospital earns more than a pharmacist intern in a national hospital or neuropsychiatric hospital.
Tell me a Medical officer in a private hospital gets laid more than a pharmacy intern in a national hospital. Private hospital do not pay docs well,you know that,except the topnotch ones like st Nicholas and reddington
Tell me a registrar in a teaching hospital earns more than a Med rep(an industrial pharmacist) in Gsk.
Tell me a chief registrar(very few of 'em we have around) earns more than an ordinary senior rep(Stage2) in d reckitt,benkiser or Novartis.
Tell me a senior registrar in a teaching hospital earns more than a senior rep in sanofi aventis or biofem or reals.Bro,,they're not even on par with industrial pharmacists @ all @ all.Never!!!

Mr man,check my first post in this thread.
It was said like this **if it's in d hospital, a doc's salary will definitely outweigh that of a pharmacist exactly d way that of a pharmacist outweighs that of a nurse**

That can only be said within d hospital,but outside d hospital, a doc stands no fvcking chance,,lailai grin grin grin

An HO in a state govt hosp earns more than a pharm intern in a state hosp
A fresh post nysc doctor in a neuropsychiatic hosp earns more than a fresh post nysc pharm in a neuropsychiatic hosp
A fresh post nysc doc in WHO, UNICEF, USAID, etc earns more than a fresh post nysc in pharmaceutucal copanies or affliate multinationals.


Level for level, org for org, a doctor earns more.

Your earlier mistake waa think you need to stay for 8 years to become a registrar, no. Most registrars are fresh post nysc. How come you dont even know that?

OP neither of these courses is something you should go into without being very passionate about it (esp medicine).I'm a semifinalist medical student,take it from me,even if you get to manage well in the beginning,when you reach the clinical stage and start going to the hospital , it can be very very depressing.And,that's something that will go on for the rest of your life.Infact, a lot of us are contemplating leaving the practice after NYSC if we can't cope.
So think carefully and deeply, will it make you happy?If not,there are so many courses you can study and get rich.

He's deficient in areas concerning d chemotherapy, pharmacognosy,chemistry and pharmaceutics of drug abi can u do that? grin
Pharmacy is more than a greener grass depending on your paradigm.Don't we have frustrated doctors
What do docs in private clinics earnDon't act like you don't know?More reason dey run abroad to practise at any slightest chance.Always protesting and taking to d street for d sake of salaries and unpaid allowances.
Upon all d mouth grin grin some are unsecured and always fight for d sake of relativity salary wise in comparison to other health workers.
No b all these people u dey hype grin grin
Say that to d likes of emzor,swipha,Evans,drug field and zolon not to even talk of juhel,cipla and orange drugs.
How many consultants can beat that? grin
No consultant,I repeat no consultant can beat d likes of those... grin grin

Some docs after d frustration would go for MBA to settle down for a financial parastatal or banks. grin after all d hyping naa.
Adesola kazeem of first bank for example.I'm sure he wouldn't have been where he was today if he was still a doc.

Truth is I'd do nursing medicine physiotheraphy medical lab,radiography optometry,public health hons,

Pharmacy!!!! Nah

Where's the specialization in that

Your mouka foam analogy is similar to an ordinary chemist shop for a poor pharmacist in which case the doctor will still earn more than the chemist owner, most private hospitals occupy big buildings and they are not beans.. Compare likes for likes for once.
Stpp comparing unsuccessful doctors to successful pharmacists.
Successful makeup artists earn more than both doctors snd pharmacists.

After you will come to the 4 bedroom hospital to beg for patronage. Lwkmd.
My dear, most hospitals have their pharmacies sef

Propaganda without fact

He'd disown him if he chooses pharmacy

There won't be more than 13 pharmacy schools in Nigeria
Because to those public and private institutions it's a waste of money
They'd invest such heavy funds to train dispensers!!!!!!
Na!!!!!

Kai! Why are u lying to back up ur point. So to u, all what pharmacist do is to dispense? Chai! U need orientation brother. Av worked in an hospital before, pharmacist in hospital counsel patient on the use of the drug, correct all those silly mistakes of the doctors and all sorts. No Matter ur argument or point, pharmacist av a larger area of choice than physicians.
And because of next time, pharmacist do a lot more than dispensing, dispensing is just fraction of it, even in hospital

I stated those shii earlier on in my first post.
Industrial pharmacy is a different world on its own bro and a fresh pharmacy grad stand a chance of getting recruited as even a junior executive trainee who can even earn more than a senior registrar.How many docs stand a chance in who and unicef?Lol..

You can't compare WHO and UNICEF with D likes of gsk and novartis.
Rather compare who with FIP(A multinational NGO in official relationt to WHO)which recruits only pharmacists and scientists,ISPE or AIPM and these topnotch organizations pay highly.I know of one of my colleagues back then who got paid €4000 equivalent to 1million plus in IPF,,,you're shouting 450k up and down.
SAVVY?
I still repeat,Even consultants stand no chance against industrial pharmacists. grin grin

May u live long bro, I Enjoy ur argument. Kudos

Why are you wallowing in the same pool of delusion?
Self deceit at its peak.
If I'm a semi illiterate,then you're a stark illiterate.
Don't lemme say I posses more knowledge in my finger more than you can ever get cognizant of. grin grin
This isn't a battle bro,I'm enlightening d ignorant and bemused mind.
Well,its so typical of you,instead of reprimanding him for arguing so blindly,you're eulogising his chronic ignorance.

In that case,my son gets to choose himself.
Don't we have frustrated docs?More reason a greater % end up as a medical officer. grin grin what's so special being a doc? undecided undecided ehn.I have a lot of 'em as friends so theres no big deal.
A junior executive trainee in Cbn earns better than a consultant that which is d peak of your career
A field engineer in haliburton earns 2times more than a consultant.
Theres no big deal.
Check that post feana as well as mentorandfriend,the latter said d whole truth.
