Health, Pharmacy, The Description of Tablets. Pharmacy is a transitional field between
health sciences and chemical sciences and a profession charged with ensuring the safe
use of medication. Traditionally, pharmacists have compounded and dispensed
medications on the orders of physicians. More recently, pharmacy has come to include
other services related to patient care including clinical practice, medication review, and
drug information. Some of these new pharmaceutical roles are now mandated by law in
various legislatures. Pharmacists, therefore, are drug therapy experts, and the primary
health professionals who optimise medication management to produce positive health-
outcomes.
