> I think you are talking about a pharmacy technician. Very different job duties than the Pharmacist. I have found them (pharmacist) useful, they know a lot about drug interactions, especially between our meds and OTC stuff.
Fair. Pharmacy technicians don't irritate me as much as pharmacists, because the former have an excuse. I do agree that pharmacists are helpful re OTC medicines and their interactions with prescribed meds. But, again, what does a pharmacist know that your doctor and the PDR doesn't know? Seriously, I cannot think of something that a pharmacist would know that isn't easily learned via the internet re drug interactions.If you have a question for your pharmacist, why didn't you ask it of your doctor?
Pharmacists that do their own compounding are in a different boat -- at least in their case they are doing something more complicated than reading and regurgitating read facts.
