Answer: Pharmacists working conditions are rigorous in many government hospitals too because more posts and counters need to be created, same with most jails or prisons. Pharmacists duty are same in prison as in hospital or dispensary. Pharmacist manage medicines stock and dispense the drugs after proper prescription assessment.
Treatment is the responsibility of doctor, pharmacists role starts after prescription is written. Job hours will be same as dispensary or hospital i.e 6 to 8 hours.
