Introduction of Pharmacy

If you want to be strong, determined and maintain consistency, then, you must have good start, otherwise, you fail to achieve it. So, I am, here, delivering a small but brief introduction, I basically feel the need of it because of two reasons, number one, from the beginning I want to build a solid relation with my readers, in case of any problem appears, I would always be available to work it out with my readers, if they have any kind of difficulties they can ask me directly, and second reason is bit complicated and to me, it's of great importance, and I think I should share them with you; we heard the term "Pharmacy" but most of the people fail to understand it properly or if  so, the idea is very narrow which is inappropriate for us such as there is little scope with pharmacy.
Now coming to the point, what comes to your mind first when someone says pharmacy or anything related to it? Would you be able to define it? or would you understood it entirely? Well, in that case, there's a definition of it which states that it is the art and science of compounding and dispensing  drugs or preparing suitable dosage forms for administration of drugs to man or animals. And three main areas of pharmacy are Pharmacology, Pharmacognosy and Pharmaceutics mostly dealing with collection, identification, purification, isolation, synthesis, standardization and quality control of medicinal substances etc. Apart from the definitions, the historical background of pharmacy is quiet large enough and full of diversity. It went from country to country, century to century, to build the world of pharmacy itself. Important contributions came from India, China, and Greek as there are many written treatises on plants found  in the 6th century BC, 1550 BC, and so on. And they are Sushruta Samhita, De Materia Medica and so on. So, I have decided to share this beautiful world with you throughout this blog, and it may be definitions, inventions, problems, ups and downs everything. I need your support to continue our journey.
