In National Pharmacists Day we celebrate the invaluable role pharmacists play in healthcare. Tracing back to ancient Mesopotamia around 2600 BC, pharmacy has evolved from apothecary practices, where early pharmacists prepared remedies from natural ingredients, now blending science and care to improve patient health. - Pioneers like William Procter Jr., the 'Father of American Pharmacy,' active in the early 19th century, emphasized the importance of education in pharmacy, leading to the establishment of high standards still upheld today. - There are 56,000+ community pharmacies and 300,000+ pharmacists in the U.S. alone. - The online pharmacy sector has seen rapid growth; market value is projected to $131B+ by 2025. - On average, a pharmacist in the U.S. dispenses approximately 200 prescriptions per day. - Generic drugs account for about 90% of all prescriptions filled in the U.S., offering a more cost-effective option for patients. - Over-the-counter (OTC) products contribute significantly to pharmacy revenue, accounting for about 14% of sales in community pharmacies. - Pharmacies have become increasingly involved in public health, with over 25% of flu vaccinations in the U.S. being administered in pharmacies. Here's to the pharmacists – the unsung heroes in the world of medicine. HL, be proud.
