Pharmacist
Duties and Responsibilities:
Pharmacists compound, or prepare, prescriptions written by physicians, dentists, and other practitioners. They review these prescriptions to validate their accuracy and then prepare the medication. This can involve weighing, measuring, and mixing drugs.
Pharmacists answer questions about the drugs patients and customers are taking and drugs wich can be sold over the counter. In some cases, pharmacists are responsible for taking inventory and ordering drugs.
Pharmacists work in hospitals, clinics, health departments, universities, and grocery, drug, and discount stores. Those who work in stores must be aware of the other health supplies available in the store so they do not direct customers in the wrong direction.
Average Salary: $33,000 - $51,000
Educational Requirements:
Students should take the most challenging high school classes, including AP if available, in English, science, and math.
All pharmacists must graduate from a college of pharmacy. Most pharmacy schools require applicants to take the Pharmacy College Admissions Test, and some require up to two years of pre-pharmacy education. Other colleges will admit students directly from high school.
I don't want to be a Pharmacist because i think is boring to look for medicines on shelves and ordering more. This may be interesting for someone who likes organization. I think this is not the right job for me and i wouldn't enjoy it.
