Wade Said:Can you become a pharmacists online?We Answered:In USA it's a doctorate. So you will not be able to find online courses to do it. It requires a lot of hands on experience. In other countries, your mileage may vary. However, be aware that if you obtain any type of medical certification, you will have to have it validated / qualified in which country you choose to work.
In the USA it's recommended that you hold at least a bachelors degree in a science before going for a doctorate in pharmacology. You don't have to, but...

Minnie Said:what science course should i take in high school if i am planning on becoming a pharmacist?We Answered:If I were you, assuming you have equal abilities in these subjects, I would take AP Chemistry as introductory college chemistry tends to be harder than introductory college biology. In introductory college chemistry classes, the labs suck and you lose like a million points if you make one stupid mistake and get the wrong results. But if you are planning on becoming a pharmacist, then hopefully these things wouldn't be too big of an issue anyway. I believe pharmacy focuses more on...
Clarence Said:What job do you think would be the best Pharmacist, Nurse, or OBGYN?We Answered:It really depends on where your interests lie. If you're interested in working with lots of people, then probably a nurse, but if you're wanting to work around drugs then a pharmacist and if you're wanting to work around babies and around the female reproductive system, then you should go into OB/GYN.

So continue to work on that as hard...

If prescription fulfillment is not 24/7, it soon will be, even at the non twenty four hour stores. Perhaps you could work third shift or at the warehouse itself. Good Luck.Randy Said:would a pharmacy career be right for me?We Answered:You need to do some more research for yourself...
Wesley Said:What do you think about pursuing a career in pharmacy or pharmacology?We Answered:Very reasonable.
There is a HUGE shortage of pharmacists, and you'll be able to get work almost anywhere. This will be true for a long time.
A pharmacologist is a totally different career, which I'd think would be much less available.
However, by the time you get to where you need to decide, you'll know a lot more about the current situation.
I agree, you want to study things that you enjoy. The exact major is probably totally unimportant, so you should pursue what you find interesting.
G'luck!Duane Said:im...

Yes, they will train you. It's usually paid training, as well :]Leon...

Many retail chain pharmacies such as CVS and Walgreens offer on-the-job paid training. I am currently trying to get a job at CVS because they have a much more lenient dress code compared to other pharmacies. I have 7 piercings :]

Jimmie Said:What would be the penalty for prescription fraud for a non-controlled substance? I work in Maryland.?We Answered:There are a few layers to this.
Technically speaking, the controlled substance criminal laws (§ 5-601 and § 5-606) on prescription fraud require that the drug requested is a "controlled dangerous substance," which by state law definition is anything in Schedule I-V, including precursors and chemical intermediaries. Because you did not name the drug, it is not possible for me to say if it falls within that category.
But, even if it doesn't fall within the definition of a controlled dangerous substance,...

I'm currently a 6th year student and will be graduating in May with my PharmD from Rutgers. With some bias, I would highly recommend it. The straight 6 program at Rutgers is a great way to go, but is extremely hard to get into and it's competitive admissions process is only increasing(I was on the admissions committee). All pharmacy schools will offer you relatively the same education, a lot of what you learn comes from how hard you work.(just like everything else, cliche, I know.) For admissions reasons,...

The only way to be emancipated is to be at least 16 and have evidence that you are able to support yourself, and you have to have a very, very strong reason for leaving home--physical abuse, sexual abuse, or very extreme verbal abuse.
You can't "choose" a new parent or guardian. Ever. The system doesn't work that way, or half the teenagers I know would be picking new parents.

On a serious note, I do not believe that there are significant differences. Obviously some medications may be available without a prescription in Switzerland and vice versa.

In NZ, there are over the counter meds, prescription only meds (which only a doctor can prescribe) and pharmacist only meds (which a pharmacist can provide - but are not available...

If you are planning to eventually live in Canada, I would check before starting the course in the UK that it will be recognized in Canada.
I understand that Canada offers good salaries for Pharmacists, however, it's unlikely to be as high as the equivalent US position. Also, as so many Pharmacists are employed by companies such as Walmart and Safeway, weekend working will always be a necessity.

Billie Said:what is the role of pharmacist in the inspection of counterfeit medicines?We Answered:The pharmacist is usually the last professionally-qualified person to handle the medicine before it is handed to the patient. Therefore, they are in a unique position to be the guardian of drug quality. The pharmacist should therefore inspect all medicines very carefully before dispensing, looking for unfamiliar packaging features, suspicious appearance, altered batch numbers or use-by data.
There are a number of technologies which are being piloted to aid this process, including RFID (radio tags) and printed codes (often 2D matrix codes). These allow the pharmacist to...
Ricardo Said:What is the role of pharmacists?We Answered:Pharmacists supervise pharmacy technicians and ensure that the medicines are dispensed correctly. They also provide information to patients and customers.
Before filling prescriptions, pharmacists check the patients’ medical histories. This is important because the pharmacists need to make sure that patients are not allergic to the medication and are not taking any drugs that might interfere with their new prescriptions. Next, they tell patients how and when to take the medications. They also warn them of possible side effects and answer any questions they might have.
If a patient encounters any serious problems...

Misty Said:Does the VA Practice good Medicine in Your Opinion?We Answered:As a Service-Incurred Disabled Veteran, I do make use of the VA medical system and have done so for years. During the latter part of the Reagan/Bush and the entire Bush/Quayle years, services were cut, short-cuts were used for supplies, and an attempt to privatize was quietly begun...but the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) got wind, especially after Bush Sr. attempted to eliminate our cost-of-living increase in order to give "Most Favored Nation" status to China---we all sent PROTEST postcards to the White House and Congress on that deal!

Mark Said:Should a pharmacist be able to refuse to stock emergency contraception? What are your thoughts?We Answered:Each person, regardless of his or her profession, should be able to follow his conscience.
