      this movie is to show the importance of pharmacy ,it often surprises me that the perception of the pharmacist among some is still that of a person who stands behind a counter, looking grim, performing unseen and quite mysterious tasks that result in delivery of a labelled box of medicines. In reality, the practice of pharmacy today is one of the most important in the delivery of health services, and pharmacists are the health professionals who have the most detailed knowledge of drugs and how they work. A pharmacist’s duty is not simply preparing the drugs which are prescribed by a general practitioner or other health professional. It is to deliver optimal pharmaceutical care, by assessing the suitability of the medication for a particular patient, taking into account their medical history, as well as possible side effects and interactions with other drugs that are being used. Importantly, pharmaceutical care also includes engagement and communication with patients, so they are given a clear understanding of the medication, its purposes, effects and the dosage regime. Within the community, local pharmacists also undertake health promotions, such as providing education sessions on specific areas of health and disease prevention.
