i have scored 736 in my board exams . and im interested in pharm D Course .

Pharm D ( Doctor of Pharmacy ) is a well known Doctorate Degree program in Pharmacy. It is also known by the name of Pharma D. It is a 6 years (5 years academic program + 1 year internship) long course.

Pharm D is different from the traditional B Pharm ( Bachelor of Pharmacy ) course in many ways. Pharm D’s duration (6 years) is longer than that of B Pharm (4 years). Other than that, Pharm D course focuses more in clinical pharmacy, pharmacy practice, pharmaceutical care as well as health care. B Pharm course focuses only on pharmacy industry and research. In short, Pharm D is much more detailed (integrated) and valuable that B Pharm course.

In India, there are 2 formats in which this course is available-

1. Regular Pharm D program (6 years long)
2. Pharm D (Post-Baccalaureate) program (3 years long)

Regular Pharm D course may be pursued by students who have passed 12th Science board examination. Post-Baccalaureate Pharm D course is for B Pharm graduates to pursue.

The course includes regular pharmacy subjects and clinical pharmacy practices. This is why this course is called an ‘ integrated course ’. The program trains students in clinical pharmacy, pharmacy practice and pharmaceutical care. At the end of the course, students gain skills such as diagnosis and treatment of diseases, selection and therapeutic usage of drugs, monitoring of patients etc. In short, Pharm D graduates are capable of performing many tasks that MBBS graduates are capable of doing (monitoring patients, diagnosis etc).
