Hi,
I am interested in studying pharmacy at University and just wanted to ask a few questions.
What are the daily challenges that are faced by a pharmacist in community pharmacy?
Is pharmacy a stable career, and in the current economic climate, is it relatively easy to find a job as a pharmacist, on completion of a degree in pharmacy?
I would appreciate any replies. Thank you.

Answers: Lots , No , Relatively.
If you really want a stable career have you considered becoming a Jockey or Horse trainer?

Pharmacy is not as transferrable as the other medical professions.
Go for medicine, dentistry, ophthalmic optics before considering pharmacy.
Big changes ahead with automation, re-skilling and such.
Future a bit uncertain.
