Im an 11th grader and am thinking about becoming a pharmacist. ?

They do have long hours but get paid alot of money, that's rewarding enough! You have to know all the drugs out there and then all their generic names too. You have to know what each drug does and the effects and side effects of each drug. Then you have drug combos, and see what each drug does combined with other drugs. Alot of work, alot of knowledge but totally worth it.

Hospital pharmacist or drug store pharmacist?

We Answered:

If salary is your major concern don't read any further. Retail is for you. However, like with anything else in life there is compromise. Don’t expect to ever get weekends off, most of the time you’re expected to eat where you work (no real lunch hour), if there’s no one to relieve you at the end of your shift you’re forced into overtime, your bonus is based upon how many scrips you average per day which leads to errors.

If money isn’t your main focus I’d like to recommend looking into long term care, hospital, nuclear or home infusion pharmacy.

In the end you have to evaluate your own situation & see what’s right for you.
