Pharmacists are experts in medicine. In a pharmacist job you fill prescriptions, customize mixed medicines, help doctors decide which medications to use, keep patients from taking multiple drugs that interact badly and educate consumers about how to use medications safely.

They also give information about general health topics such as diet, exercise, and stress management, and provide information on products. Also they complete third-party insurance forms and other paperwork.
