    Is The Future Of The Pharmacy Profession DOOMED?

    Welcome to the inaugural episode of Prescription FYI! In this episode, we tackle a pressing concern: the declining interest in the pharmacy profession and what it means for the future. Join me as I draw on nearly two decades of experience in the field to explore alarming trends, including the significant drop in first-time pass rates for the NAPLEX exam. We’ll unpack the factors contributing to this decline, from shifts in exam structure to changes in pharmacy school admissions practices. What does a decreasing applicant pool mean for the quality of education? How has the pandemic affected the preparedness of new pharmacists? Whether you’re an aspiring pharmacy student, a current professional, or simply curious about the field, this episode is packed with insights to help navigate the evolving landscape of pharmacy. Tune in to find out if the future is truly doomed or if we can work together to reignite interest in this vital profession!
