National Pharmacist Day

Every year, on January 12th, the nation recognizes and respects all pharmacists.

Pharmacy pharmacists' position has shifted over the years. They now serve as an integrated member of the health-care team where once they were simply the traditional "lick, stick, and pour" dispensary. Pharmacists are often directly involved in patient care and play a vital role in a patient's recovery.

Pharmacists have traditionally reviewed and sold medications to physicians for patient-prescribed medications for patient-prescribed medications. Pharmacists and health care professionals are advising patients and health care professionals on the selection, dosages, interactions, and side effects of prescriptions in modern times. In addition, their job includes being a learned intermediary between a prescriber and a patient.. Pharmacists can then ensure the safe and effective use of medications by monitoring patient health and development.

Pharmacists work long hours, with some pharmacists working the entire time. pharmacists also administer immunizations, in addition to dispensing pills and giving tips on medications. New medications are also tested by pharmacists who perform study.
