What is included in the practice of pharmacy?

  1. Monitoring of drug therapy and modifying drug therapy according to protocols

  2. Only dispensing and selling of drugs

  3. Providing medical advice on conditions

  4. Performing surgical operations

The correct answer is: Monitoring of drug therapy and modifying drug therapy according to protocols

Pharmacy is a complex practice that involves a wide range of responsibilities. Option A is the correct answer because a pharmacist is responsible for monitoring and modifying drug therapy for patients, according to established protocols. This includes ensuring that prescribed medications are safe, effective, and appropriate for the patient's condition. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they only represent a small portion of what a pharmacist is responsible for. Dispensing and selling drugs is only one aspect of a pharmacist's role, they also provide important medication counseling and education to patients. Providing medical advice on conditions is the responsibility of a healthcare provider, such as a physician or nurse practitioner, and pharmacists do not perform surgical operations. Therefore, option A is the best answer that correctly captures the scope of the practice of pharmacy.
