Abstract: There is a move in the pharmacy/pharmacist profession, a move that is being driven by many factors, and a move that is causing the art of pharmacy to become further and further separated from everyday pharmacy practice. These factors are discussed in this article, including stories, challenges, and solutions. The author has penned this article to try and convince the pharmacists and pharmacist advocates reading this article to immediately take action to reverse this trend before we have traveled too far down our current path. This includes the efforts of Boards of Pharmacy. To be successful in its mission of getting the safest and best healthcare for patients in the world of pharmacy is to facilitate pharmacists to practice at the full extent of their training and expertise.
