Here are some points about both the Courses which may help you to choose the best course for you :
Pharmacy contains detailed knowledge of drugs,their interactions, side-effects and their compounding and dispensing .
You will learn Pharmaceutics, Pharmacology, Pharmacognosy,Industrial pharmacy subjects in the Pharmacy.
