hello there,

Pharmacy is the science and technique of preparing, dispensing, and reviewing drugs and providing additional clinical services.

The field of pharmacy can generally be divided into three primary disciplines:

·         Pharmaceutics

·         medicinal chemistry and pharmacognosy

·         Pharmacy Practice

There are many different types of pharmacy, and other places where a trained pharmacist may work. This includes:

• community pharmacy :  It is this type that is most traditionally known as the pharmacist or chemist shop. A community pharmacist usually works in a store that provides the community with access to the medications they need, as well as advice to promote the safe and effective use of the medicines they provide.
• hospital pharmacy: A hospital pharmacy is the place where the management of medications occurs in a hospital, medical clinic or nursing home. A hospital pharmacist often works in close collaboration with other health professionals to ensure that the medication regimen for each patient is optimized to achieve the best outcomes
• clinical pharmacy:  The aim of clinical pharmacy is to ensure the optimal use of medications for the best outcomes through the provision of drug information and monitoring for drug safety.
• industrial pharmacy: The industrial pharmacy involves the pharmaceutical industry and includes the research, production, packaging, quality control, marketing and sales of pharmaceutical goods. 
• compounding pharmacy: A compounding pharmacy involves the production and preparation of medicines in new forms.
• consulting pharmacy:  It focuses on the theoretical review of medications rather than dispensing medicines.
• ambulatory care pharmacy: The ambulatory pharmacy provides healthcare services to many patients in rural areas, particularly to geriatric populations. These pharmacists help in the management of patients who are at higher risk of drug-related problems or disease complications due to lack of control over the condition.
• regulatory pharmacy:  regulatory pharmacy is responsible for creating rules and regulations for the safe use of medicine to promote positive health outcomes. 
• home care pharmacy: Home care pharmacy primarily involves the preparation and delivery of injectables to critically ill patients in the home environment. 

  Hope this helps.
