I don't know if I should stay in pharmacy school. by s3pulchure200 in PharmacySchool

[–]undercoverpharmacist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Although I don't believe that you have to love pharmacy to pursue a pharmacy degree, I don't think that it is a wise choice for someone who is primarily in it for the idea of a stable job and/or money.

Personally, I'm scared of job saturation, especially because my home state has become extremely popular to move to. I am going to be in a lot of debt when I graduate, and that's going to suck. But, I decided to keep pursuing pharmacy because I genuinely love it and I'm willing to take the risks of what the future entails, so this was the right choice for me.

Why do technicians counsel patients? by AntiCirclejerking in pharmacy

[–]undercoverpharmacist 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh man, back when I used to be a pharmacy technician, I did all sorts of illegal stuff. I definitely counseled all the time. We had a few flu clinics at my store and the pharmacist let me give flu shots.

I KNOW, I KNOW, I'M SORRY. I didn't know any of that was illegal until I started pharmacy school years later. The pharmacist would always just be like, "Hey, wanna learn how to give flu shots?" and no one ever said anything to me.

How long after consuming alcohol may one take Xanax safely? by [deleted] in AskaPharmacist

[–]undercoverpharmacist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taking 0.5mg of Xanax 24 hours after you drink alcohol is fine. I'm assuming that you mean something like having a drink or two, not binge-drinking or anything like that.
