ABSTRACT
At the core of pharmacy is knowledge. Various study commissions in pharmacy have con•rmed this by stating that pharmacy is a knowledge-based profession. The knowledge starts with study, and study starts in pharmacy school. It continues, if one wishes, into graduate studies or a residency or fellowship training. Being a pharmacist also includes a commitment to lifelong learning. This means pharmacists must continually keep up with the latest developments in drug therapy, changes in pharmacy laws, and changes in the profession.
