The field of pharmacology is a vastly promising one. MD Pharmacology is a good subject in those wishing to join the academia, conduct research, become a clinical pharmacologist or become a pharmaceutical physician. The role of a pharmaceutical physician include careers in medical advisor, medical writer, clinical develepment and pharmacovigilance. There is less exposure regarding the pharmaceutical industry career aspect during the MBBS undergraduate program. Career decisions should only be made after a complete and comprehensible picture is made available as job satisfaction translates to a better life.
