Hanleigh’s Answer

A science-related field would be a perfect opportunity for you! A degree in chemistry would give you insight in the background working with chemicals and molecules. For further understanding of chemistry as it pertains to medicine, pharmacy would be a great career to look into. If you would rather work in a lab, you could focus your career on research using your chemistry background to develop medicines.

Richard’s Answer

Not sure if you want to make homemade meds or enter the field of medicine.

To enter the field of medicine:
In the US, to apply to medical school, you need a bachelor's degree. Any 4-year university should suffice.
Pick a major that interests you so you don't mind devoting a majority of your hours to studying. You will need to get good grades in college in order to apply for medical school. At the medical school I attended, the average GPA is reported to be 3.85, so even one or two B's can hurt your chances of acceptance.
Aside from this, any major is acceptable as long as you complete the prerequisite courses.
Typical medical school prerequisites include:
Biology: Lecture – 4 semesters; Lab – 1 semester
General Chemistry: Lecture – 2 semesters; Lab – 1 semester
Organic Chemistry: Lecture – 2 semesters; Lab – 1 semester
Biochemistry: Lecture – 1 semester
General Physics: Lecture – 2 semesters; Lab – 1 semester
Math: Statistics – 1 semester
English: Rhetoric (Composition) and Literature – 2 semesters

Suzannah’s Answer

Some medicines can be made and some can’t. Try getting a book with recipes on home remedies. They will help things like sleep and minor colds, as well as burns and cuts. Otherwise, for major medication you may not have an option but to buy the pills

Suzannah recommends the following next steps:

Research folk remedies
Research PubMed for rested alternative treatment

Maureen’s Answer

A degree in Chemistry or Chemical engineering would be best to “make medicine”. Unless you’re interested in being a Pharmacist, then a degree in Pharmacy would be the way to go.
