学药化和药分的，在工业界还好找工作吧。合成的博士在大药厂不要多久，工资，奖金
七七八八就超过六位数了。而且以后还有的涨，比Pharmacist挣的可不少，还不用倒班
。大概工作没有Pharmacist好找，稳定性也差一点。可是不用从头来过啊！也不会背一

发帖数: 1009 | 3 想做clinical pharmacist不单单需要pharmd，还要residency或者fellowship。所以你
要做好充分的打算，毕业后还要花上至少2-3年去完成continuing education，否则混
个学校里教clinical faculty的职位也是很难的。用phd+pharmd去做个教pharmacology
一类的faculty就是另外一条路了。
不管怎么说，pharmacist是个还算比较稳定的职业，尤其在这种经济情况下。你如果想
靠着这个职业过大富大贵的生活，那是选错职业了，pharmcist和华尔街上那些年薪几
十万的工作是没法比的。
何我觉得应该尝试下。谢谢！ |

发帖数: 1009 | 9 I personally think good communication skills are really important for a
pharmacist, and it was strongly emphasized throughout pharmacy school. You
will have to deal with customers, pharmacists, techs, doctors, nurses in
retail, and hospital is really different where there is much more
interaction with doctors and nurses. People skills are important no matter
where you go.
If you are able to work as a tech and you have the time to do so, I'd

The pharmacists I work with in a local hospital are happy. They do not find
clinical stuff boring but fascinating. They are proud that they are
pharmacists, who also make impact on patient care. They know tons of

that they can answer questions regarding medications from anyone, including

发帖数: 36302 | 19 I think what he said is true.
Docs are lazy so they left Vanco/Genta/coumadin or even zosyn orders to
pharmacist. That does not mean they trust you, simple because they are lazy.
Some doctors always write order" antibiotics pharmacy to dose", when you are
fresh, you might be excited about this, but when you make same orders for
years, you will feel different.
They always do that, even you are only a staff pharmacist, say in night
shift admission orders.
But on the other hand, job is job, boring |

我本来要关门的班,被叫去10点上班.下午又有个人来不了.高峰期2小时就3个Tech。
Pharmacist自己input, fill.大概6点多的时候，来了一个女的，给了一张CII,oxy30。
我没看出来是假的，只不过很好奇为什么她帮别人拿药，处方上地址和驾照上地址只有
一个数字不一样。她要用Pharmacy discount卡，我问谁是cardholder, 答说是她的卡
，我接着问病人和她什么关系，她犹豫了半天说other。这个是从来没有遇到过的。处
方扫描进去之后我就拿给Pharmacist了，是我们经理，她只看了一眼就说是假的，拨了
个电话过去果然没有人接。
我又看了好几遍处方，真的很难辨别，也是写在防伪纸上面，数量和sig也没有什么差
错。就是有一点比较不一样，所有的字体都是一样大。
那个女的嘛，看上去像磕药的，平时看买sudefade的人看多了，一看她就像经常来买
sudefade的。今天又来了一大群集体买sudefade的，我当时不在前面。经理说以后看见
成群结队地来的，就不能卖。

毕竟药剂师能拿到的病人信息很可能是有限的，他们的training也不足以真正解决偶尔
