Which one would be more rewarding,doing plain MBBS or Pharm.D(Doctorate of Pharmacy).By plain MBBS I mean doing MBBS without thinking about any post graduation or specialization i.e being an MBBS doctor and not more.I’m laying down the course structure and scope of both Pharm D and MBBS so that it can be much more clear.
Syllabus
| Syllabus of Pharm-D (comparing with mbbs) First Year 1.1 HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY 1.3 MEDICINAL BIOCHEMISTRY BIOLOGY/ MATHS: Second year 2.1 PATHOPHYSIOLOGY 2.2 PHARMACEUTICAL MICROBIOLOGY 2.4 PHARMACOLOGY – I 2.5 COMMUNITY PHARMACY( very important) 2.6 PHARMACOTHERAPEUTICS – I Third year 3.1 PHARMACOLOGY – II 3.3 PHARMACOTHERAPEUTICS – II 3.4 PHARMACEUTICAL JURISPRUDENCE Fourth year 4.1 PHARMACOTHERAPEUTICS – III 4.2 HOSPITAL PHARMACY 4.3 CLINICAL PHARMACY 4.6 CLINICAL TOXICOLOGY Fifth year 5.1 Clinical Research 5.2 Pharmacoepidemiology and Pharmacoeconomics 5.3 Clinical Pharmacokinetics & Pharmacotherapeutic Drug Monitoring 5.4 Clerkship Sixth Year: Internship or residency training including postings in speciality units. Student should independently provide the clinical pharmacy services to the allotted wards. (i) Six months in General Medicine department, and (ii) Two months each in three other speciality departments Internship._ (1) Internship is a phase of training wherein a student is expected to conduct actual practice of pharmacy and health care and acquires skills under the supervision so that he or she may become capable of functioning independently. The following are the expected role of a pharmacist in the future health sector which given by IPA: |
MBBS syllabus Proposed MBBS curriculum by MCI.Structure and Duration of the Course The committee recommends the following for consideration for implementation: 4.5 years course + 1 year internship).The course would be of 5.5 years duration with one year internship and provision for elective periods of 6 months before or after internship. Curriculum can be divided into core and non-core with the non-core part of the curriculum be made elective or applied.Subject covered Group A: Year1- Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry; Year 2- Pathology, Microbiology and Pharmacology Group B: Year 4- Medicine, Surgery Obstetrics and Gyanecology, Paediatrics, Family Medicine and Community health Group C : Year 2- Forensic medicine Year 3 and 4- ENT and Opthalmology, STD and Dermatology, Orthopaedics, Accident and Emergency Medicine, Radiology, Anaesthesia, Psychiatry Elective options- clinical and research electives |
Career options
| Some of the roles of PharmD (community) pharmacists are as follows: 1. Patient medication history interview 2. Medication order review 3. Patient counseling regarding safe and rational use of drug 4. Adverse drug reaction monitoring 5. Drug interaction monitoring 6. Therapeutic drug monitoring 7. Participating in ward rounds 8. Providing drug information at the drug information and poison information centre..Career options available to PharmD Graduates: v Community Pharmacy v Hospital Pharmacy v Pharmaceutical Industry v Pharmacy Education v Bio-medical research v Geriatric Pharmacy v Governmental Agencies v Home Healthcare v General Practice in Modern Medicines v Insurance sector v Health care documentation (like archivers) |
Career options available to MBBS Graduates: v General Practice v Govt/Public sector/Private sector v Academics v Health care documentation v Health care management v Insurance sector |
Additional Details
The Pharm-D syllabus as laid down by Pharmacy council of India have covers almost all of the diseases through various subjects and the corresponding practical via different names and heads. It is not like that of MBBS curriculum where the sections are categorized as general medicine, paediatrics, ENT, etc. But here they have interpreted everything in a different way.One cannot make out clearly, at first sight; to what extent the student is taught about general medicine and the clinical aspects but intact Pharm D and MBBS are same in regards to general medicine and the clinical aspects.
As pharm D is a doctoral degree any body graduating as Pharm D can put ‘Dr’ as prefix in front of his name.
On the stage Of Public Health Services We are not to Argue which one is better. Aim Should be to provide best health service, and for that Both have its own importance…

The colleges in india must make mandatory atleast 50% medical facullty for pharmacology&pharmacotherapeutics.Even i enquired many of my friends there even worse….In my opinion this pharm.D programme should be tied to MBBS department where we can work in correlated way..

Dear Prem !
No body is asking you to flip from MBBS to PharmD or PharmD to MBBS. Its upon your judgement. If you feel its good, have interest, can enter. PharmD gives you a Postgraduate degree. MBBS is UG course. After PharmD you can directly apply for PhD or any specialization. Just doing MBBS is nothing now days. You should go for higher studies.

Most people says tat pharm d is not suitable for girls,is it true.Does it only involve drug manufacturing?

Its not like that… PharmD is mostly clinical… in PharmD we deal more with clinical Practice.. we are not involved in manufacturing…
