A pharmacist may be asked to advise patients on the therapeutic values, contents, and uses of drugs and related devices. A pharmacist is also responsible for maintenance and review of the patient’s prescription records and the storing and preservation of medications. The majority of pharmacists practice in community pharmacies, which are either independent or chain owned. Others work in hospitals, as a consultant pharmacist, or are self-employed.
