Ricardo,
if you studied Pharmacy in Portugal and have qualified to work as a Pharmacist in Portugal, then you will not have to do a Pre-reg in the UK. Your EU qualifications will be accepted in the UK by virtue of an EU Directive of 1968 I think.
You will have to provide proof that you are qualified/licensed in Portugal, all translated into English & certified by a sworn translator.
A lot of paperwork, but entirely do-able.
