They also study the effect certain drugs have on humans or animals.

The difference between a pharmacologist and a pharmacist is that a pharmacologist studies more of the science part of the medication while a pharmacist studies more of the health part.

Also as part of a pharmacologists job, they have to fill prescriptions and verify instructions from physicians.

They should have a strong science and math background.

In college, pharmacologists must study general and organic chemistry, human anatomy and physiology, molecular and cellular biology, microbiology, statistics, calculus, and English.
