A pharmacist, also known as a chemist or a druggist, is a health professional who is responsible for the management and distribution of medicines and has the scientific knowledge to counsel patients and other healthcare professionals on the use, safety, side effects and interactions of medicines with other medicines or foods. Using knowledge of the mechanism of action of drugs, the pharmacist understands how they should be used to achieve maximum benefit, minimal side effects and to avoid drug interactions. Pharmacists undergo university or graduate-level education to understand the biochemical mechanisms and actions of drugs, drug uses, therapeutic roles, side effects, potential drug interactions, and monitoring parameters. This is mated to anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology. Pharmacists interpret and communicate this specialized knowledge to patients, physicians, and other health care providers.
