dispensing drugs. It is a health profession that links health
sciences with chemical sciences and aims to ensure the
safe and effective use of pharmaceutical drugs. The scope
of pharmacy practice includes more traditional roles such
as compounding and dispensing medications, and it also
includes more modern services related to health care,
including clinical services, reviewing medications for safety
and efficacy, and providing drug information. Pharmacists,
therefore, are the experts on drug therapy and are the
primary health professionals who optimize use of
medication for the benefit of the patients.
