PHARMACIST'S DUTIES

Not many people know everyday functions and commitments of a pharmacist. Going to your local pharmacy is one of the most routine trips, but have you ever wondered what people dispense your drugs?

Pharmacists are experts in drug dis­covery, development, preparation and usage. They are both professional scientists and qualified health care practitioners. Phar­macists work in hospitals, in the commu­nity and in the pharmaceutical industry. They promote the safe and effective use of medicines and ensure quality patient care. Often, pharmacists are the first point of in­formation on medicines for the public and other health care professionals, and must be effective communicators.

Pharmacists, or pharmaceutical chemists, are specialized individuals in the field of chemistry. Their responsibilities are to take care of patients' health and — in many cases — their lives.

The knowledge of medications is absolutely vital for a pharmacist. Pharma­cists not only dispense medications, they also teach general public about drugs and advise them on safe use. This is probably the single most important responsibility of pharmacists. If they cannot educate healthcare staff and general public about medications, there is a serious risk that drugs will be misused. A pharmacist ex­plains to the patient when to take the medications and how they must be taken.

Pharmacists also have to keep track of the newest drugs on the market and have the ability to answer questions regarding them as well. Pharmacists never stop learn­ing about medications and pay attention to detail in such an important sphere.

Also pharmacists are responsible for doctor's prescriptions and dispensing the medication ordered. Pharmacists check that the right amount of drugs is dispensed, and that the patient receives correct instructions. Pharmacists also have to dispense medications correctly and accurately. They make sure that the right drug is dis­pensed, and that it is given to the right patient in the right dosage. They are capable of compounding and mixing drugs for a wide range of applications as prescribed by physicians.

Nowadays pharmacy as a profession continues to grow and expand as well as pharmacist's duties.
