pharmacy

n. location where prescription medication is prepared or sold; drugstore, store that fills prescriptions and sells medicines and other miscellaneous items; profession of preparing medical drugs; pharmaceutics, science of preparing and dispensing medications

Pharmacy (from the Greek φάρμακον = drug) is the health profession that links the health sciences with the chemical sciences, and it is charged with ensuring the safe use of medication. The scope of pharmacy practice includes more traditional roles such as compounding and dispensing medications on the orders of physicians, and it also includes more modern services related to patient care, including clinical services, reviewing medications for safety and efficacy, and providing drug information. Pharmacists, therefore, are experts on drug therapy and are the primary health professionals who optimize medication use to provide patients with positive health outcomes.
