MrEgghead:didn't you see when I apologised for drifting? i rather include medicine in my opinion because kids out here in nairalamd don't know what it is. I am very sure you are a medical student . Some think it is just a seven year course, one year internship and a pay check and i laugh to this. my brother who has been practicing for 7years now wants to leave Nigeria because of poor pay and incessant strikes and dilapidated facilities. If you are a medical student or you know one tell them to gidi up. It is not how it used to be better pray for the grace of God and do not talk foolishly. i just even gave you a hint on how medicine work placement is and you are here saying nonsense. pray for the favour of God all else na FMC kogi you go land and you will understand 6 Likes |

Depends on the location. In America depending on the state Pharmacy is way more lucrative than Nursing. Nurses "may" make more money through overtime. But the standing in Pharmacy isn't worth the money after engaging in it for a long period of time. |

Chapman801:Did I complain to you? I know your type..What will you gain in trying to downgrade medicine the way you're doing now? Every course in Nigeria doesn't guarantee fortunes in anyway and most of us know about this and we still chose that path not because of the money or the job availability but because that's what we've been called to do..The read deal to some of us is about 'Saving lives'..it doesn't matter if it's at FMC Kogi or health center in oba ile...What matters to us is getting to save lives...Not every Doctor wants to be rich or money freak...We chose it because it's the best job in the world.

Nursing has too much hype over pharmacy because it is more lucrative, better and more demanding than pharmacy. Nursing has different aspects, pediatric, obgyn, public health, med surg, ophthalmic, blah blah blah. Just find one of these that suits you or interests you and you're good. I've never been a fan of pharmacy, There are less and less jobs for pharmacists, and the job market for nursing is always good. There are also so many diverse settings a nursing degree can be put to use in like I said already. With a little additional study, you can specialize into areas you are particularly interested in, or even earn Nurse Practioner designation, which anyway means that you can work in a clinic and diagnose and prescribe as a doctor can. 3 Likes |

In the US, pharmacy (Pharm.D) arguably pays more and offers more flexible working hours. A pharmacist with a doctorate is the benchmark to practice pharmacy and rake in 6-figure salary. Nursing also has huge potential to rake in mad pay depending on the persons ambition in the nursing field especially those with Doctor of Nursing Practice degrees. Let us say, a pharmacist would rake in a 6-figure salary earlier than a nurse but both professions are very lucrative. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Hmmm,op from experience,none ,i repeat none of my friends who did Nursing in Nigeria are unemployed. I don't know of pharmacy but i know Nursing to be highly employable after graduation,even the ones who attended school of Nursing. And their pay is lovely,to be on a better side,ask a medical doctor to help tailor your opinion,atleast he won't be biased. 1 Like |

Both of them are good and at the end of the day you are the one that will make that choice. But permit me to point this one major difference out: >> Nursing is more clinical and as a result more restricted to the clinical (hospital setting). If you don't get a job as a nurse in a hospital there are very few other places that you can have a rewarding practice. >>Pharmacy on the other hand is clinical, industrial and business oriented at the same time. You have the option of working in a hospital and you receive higher pay than nurses. You have the option of working in production units of Pharmaceutical industries. You have the option of working as a Medical Representative for Pharmaceutical Industries. You can also work in their regulatory department. You have the option working as a community pharmacist in retail pharmaceutical outfits, or in their wholesaling units. You have the option of working at the NIPRID, NAFDA, ... These are the few that come to mind. NewJ6322: 3 Likes |
