YES!!! That's what I'm talking about...... Pharmacy is more than just memorizing a whole lot of tongue-twisting medications' names (although it's one of the 'HELLISH' part of being a Pharmacist) and studying theoretically about the wiry chemical structure of the drugs...... Pharmacy Is An Art and Science of Compunding... Why is it a Science...? cuz (because :p) we are studying about the chemical aspect of the drugs..... and why is it an Art...? cuz (once again lol) as a Pharmacist, apart from knowing the structure and theoretical knowledge of the drugs, he/she MUST be able to compound the drug as well..... This is the bread-and-butter of a Pharmacist, which separates this career from other medicinal professions and medical practitioners...
Compounding drugs is similar to cooking, heheheh..... Just like cooking, other than having all the ingredients, a person needs to have the art of mixing all the ingredients to produce a good-tasting and mouth-watering meals........ And the same goes to drug compounding - art is needed to produce quality and excellent drugs...... If not, the drugs might be ineffective, or worst case scenario, becoming a potent poison which can even KILL YOU!!!
having the art separates a Pharmacist from a Killer :D |
