Are the golden days of pharmacy really over?

I've been interested in becoming a pharmacist for some time now, mostly based on my interest on Chemistry and help/communicating with others. However, there is a stigma forming about this career-- about how its "golden days" are over and it's not worth the effort, How accurate is this? #pharmacy #pharmacists #retail-pharmacy

Which do you find better when it comes to the pharmacy world, working in a research lab or a pharmacy in a drug store/hospital?

I have been accepted into a pre-pharmacy program and I am hoping to finish school with a Pharm-D. I feel that a research lab will be better for me because I want to help in finding things like the cure to cancer or the cure to Alzheimer's and I believe that the cure is in medicine. I want to know what its like from different viewpoints and which, in the long run, will be better for me. #medicine #research #pharmacy #pharmacists #pharmacist #medical-research #laboratory #pharmd

As a pharmacist, is dealing with the public a tedious part of your job? Will being a pharmacist put me in any danger because of the people who want their medicine?

My father has insisted that I should look into pharmacy. I'm willing to give it a shot. I worked in a pharmacy for one summer, and I realize my experience could be different from others who have also worked in a pharmacy. There was once a gunman in my pharmacy, and it really terrified me. I was only asking this question to see if there were any more dangers. Not only that, but I was hoping to find out if there are any options that put me away from some of the public. #pharmacy

How is the career path for a pharmaceutical scientist?

I'm a rising senior in high school planning to major in pharmaceutical sciences for college. Could you give me advice on making the process of becoming a pharmaceutical scientist easier and more efficient? What additional courses should I take in college? Should I get a PhD or a Master's? Should I study to be a pharmacist as well? As a scientist, what chances do you regret skipping on during your college years? #college #scientist #pharmacy
