If you are thinking of being a pharmacist, then here's a good video setting out the day to day activities we all do.

I'm not sure where it was made, but I found loads of ones like this on Utube. I might even add my own!

Have a look at the American one - make an error and you end up on the news there!

That is funny. Sometimes it's difficult explaining what we actually do when people ask.

As far as we can, is that we make sure that you get the right stuff in the right dose and know what to do with it, and know when to say it is going wrong, in words that you understand. Not bad for 90p... less than 3 stops on the bus, 1/3 pint of bitter, nearly a litre of petrol, a ciabatta from Sainsburys, one and a half croissants or a cup of coffee.(or whatever the tariff says)

PS. Make sure that all your OTC requests for muscle pain get asked if they are on statins. You may stop a serious ADR, or it might just be gardening pains from the early spring, thanks to global warming.

Seems a good enough way of explaining it.

lol 5 whole years learning how to type with 2 fingers, some of us just really know how to aim high! Since i'm clearly already way too advanced, I suppose I should go straight into year 4 just to brush up on the other not so important bits such as how not to kill members of the public with the wrong drugs
