Pharmacy is the scientific discipline that studies drugs, focusing on two key areas: the interaction between drugs and the human body, and the application of pharmaceuticals in disease treatment. The field encompasses various domains, including drug research, production, distribution, quality assurance, pharmaceutical management, and patient guidance on proper medication use.
A person practicing in the field of pharmacy is called a pharmacist. Pharmacy is closely and directly linked to the medical field, hence the frequent pairing of “Medicine and Pharmacy”. It is also deeply connected to the field of chemistry and plays a critical role in ensuring the safe and effective use of medicinal products.
