AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The role of biochemistry in the pharmacy curriculum has recently been questioned based on its relevance to the career of a working pharmacist. This commentary explores the historical background of pharmacy education and the central role of chemistry since the 19th century. Reasons for the importance of biochemistry and other sciences are introduced to demonstrate their role in the practice of pharmacy.
