Introduction The pharmaceutical profession is growing by leaps and bounds; several external factors such as technology, interdisciplinary focus, and management therapy have contributed towards this growth. The paper will examine what the future has in store for pharmacy especially in light of the evolution that the profession has gone through. Three things I have learned about pharmacy practice In the first half of the twentieth century, it was often assumed that pharmacists were to prepare medicinal products based on some kind of art rather than through the use of preset scientific procedures. However, in the mid-twentieth century, their role got restricted to dispensation, labeling, and compounding uncompleted drugs. This was because large-scale manufacturing became a reality at that point. A decade later, the term clinical practice was introduced in the pharmacy where patient-centered practice took center stage. In the next three decades up to the nineteen nineties, most pharmacists began collaborating with members of other associated professionals. At this period, there was a transformation of traditional conceptions of pharmacy as diverse disciplines were introduced. After 1990, pharmaceutical roles were redefined to emphasize the aspect of patient quality. (Strand & Hepler, 1990) Currently, pharmacists are understood as individuals who are experts in medication and must work for hand in hand with healthcare professionals, physicians, and patients to lead to great outcomes in health and to manage medication. In light of this evolution, there are three major things that I have learned about pharmacy. First I have learned that the primary role of the pharmacist is adaptation. This role starts with another health professional that diagnoses the patient and then decides that the patient will need medication. The pharmacist then steps to implement the prescription. However, minor modifications can be made and they may include substituting a drug with a similar one or altering the level of dosage depending on patient needs. However, all these actions can only be implemented after getting a go-ahead from the affected person. Evaluation of the effects of the drug must be done by the person who had prescribed the drugs in the first place. Usually, such pharmacists may be found in community pharmacies or clinical pharmacies. The latter is usually based in healthcare settings while the former is found in retail settings that resemble convenience stores. The second thing I learned about pharmacists is that they can also carry out an initiation role. In this instance, the first healthcare professional that the patient will see is the pharmacist who must then make the decision on whether drug therapy will be necessary based on a thorough assessment of the patient. Sometimes, this may be done upon referral by physicians. Alternatively, patients may initiate this when they happen to have a chronic illness that requires the continual intake of certain drugs. Therefore, such a pharmacist may be responsible for monitoring the patient. In other words, he/ she can be described as a consultant pharmacist. (Nimmo & Holland, 2005) Lastly, I learned that pharmacists have the responsibility of compounding. Here, they are given the task of creating drugs in different forms such
