The Importance of Women in the Pharmacy Field

Pharmacy Times spoke with Lisa King, founder of the Fulfilled Pharmacist, about the importance of women in the pharmacy field and Women Pharmacist Day.

King feels that the roadblocks for women on whatever they want to do for their goals is support, sacrifice, and self-confidence. "Sometimes, even if you have that great support from family, friends, whatever it is, women just feel like there may not be enough support to go on and take that next step," King said.

King also discussed how crucial it is for women to push themselves towards their passions outside of pharmacy, ways that female representation can increase in leadership roles, and why pharmacy is an ideal profession for women.
