Career in Pharmacy

It is the presence of pharmacist in the hospital which makes it possible to prevent the medication errors and helps to reduce the medication cost. I have strong desires to help the humanity, particularly the suffering. I would like to be a member of health care team, and would help to ensure that patients take their medicines as prescribed and avoid harmful drug interactions.
