I don't have any experience in working in a pharmacy, I've only worked retail before. I'm interested in getting into Pharmacy because I want to be able to help people in need. I hope to get a job at a hospital where I’ll hopefully make medicine for the patients that need it.
Good day Everyone, I would really appreciate if someone could kindly explain in great detail what the difference is between a career in pharmacology and a career in pharmacy . And I don't just mean salary wise, what can one do that the other absolutely can't, how are they both viewed in the workplace... and lots more. Initially, I thought that they were both the more or less on the same level but I've heard lots of things about the former being a less "noble" path and that sometimes they end up as Pharmacy Assistants. I'm hoping to get more of a real life perspective, because searching online has managed to confuse me even more. Thank you in anticipation.?
