- How to become a pharmacist in USA if you are a foreign graduate | foreign pharmacist in usa | is pharmacist a good career option
Pharmacists in all states must obtain a license to practice. Licensure typically involves completing an accredited Pharm. D. program and passing two licensing examinations: the North American Pharmacist Licensing Exam (NAPLEX) and the Multi-State Pharmacy Jurisprudence Exam (MPJE).
I’ve been getting a lot of messages and comments here and on Facebook asking me what is the process of becoming a pharmacist in US and what it looks like to be a pharmacist, do I prescribe if not then what do I actually do.
Pharmacists: advise other healthcare professionals, including doctors and nurses, on how to choose medicines and use them correctly. ensure that new medicines are safe to use with other medication. advise on dosage and suggest the most appropriate form of medication such as tablet, injection, ointment or inhaler.
If you're foreign graduate you need to take 5 steps to be a registered pharmacist in US.
STEP # 1
Take the FPGEE exam.

Hi Dr Sidra
I am pharm d graduate
I wanted to attempt Naplex exam
I would like to know about the visa process when we need to go for internship in USA
Could you please tell me how to apply and what visa to apply for and about the internship as well
Thank you
Hi maam minimum CGPA or marks requirement in usa for Pakistan pharmacist
They say third times a charm, am officially passed my Naplex 🎉🎉🎈 for all my repeat test takers don't give up and don't be discouraged
I failed 3 times, i lost money to scams and reviews that never helped but the major thing is that I've not lost hope
@@philipjavier4762 Sorry about your plight my friend but i was once in your shoes before i was recommended to Mr James William and that's how i passed Naplex
I only studied a lot when i went for the first time last year at but the second time was no easy, all thank to my aunt who introduced me to Mr James am really grateful
Well I've taken the exam for the second time now and still didn't succeed, i wonder how those who succeeded did it
I'm a living testimony of MR JAMES, he has helped me achieve my dream of becoming a licienced nurse, i encourage those who find it difficult to pass the Naplex exams to work him and thank me later
Thanks for sharing! You shared an outstanding post and gave good information about the pharmacist.
They say third times a charm, am officially passed my Naplex 🎉🎉 for all my repeat test takers don't give up and don't be discouraged.
Hello madam..iam a doctor of pharmacy student.. I have some doubts...i would like to talk to you. Can you please share me your email..so that I can contact you. Please
Congratulations, I am looking forward to getting to that point, would you mind sharing your experience personally?
How you passed it
@@malaikasaeed2560 Hello i passed mine so let me know if you need help i can share Mr James contact with you he helped me pass
@@malaikasaeed2560 Hey let me know if you need help
Thank you so much ma'am for this valuable amazing video.I really found it quite a lot useful.
yeah i had the same enthusiasm... your way of talk signals that the way is too paved for the foreign graduates. As the market gets more and more saturated, the chances of getting hired became less and less. even the graduates of US. schools of pharmacy have been suffering from this fact. I know a US pharmacist who has been working as a floater in Walgreens for more than 8 years although he could build immense knowledge! The numbers of the Egyptian newcomers are unbelievable though! Most of the foreign pharmacists are Egyptian and if the board of pharmacy has to accept all those, the market will become oversaturated, and getting a chance to work would, really, become a dream for us.
Thanks so much for this overwhelmingly invaluable video !
You are so welcome!
I'm very thankful to you, I'm very glad when i know you are from PU, I'm not from your batch, I've joined recently in 2k20. I wish to study masters in USA plz stay here in future and guide us, thank you again, May Allmihghty you live long. Ameen Sum Ameen.
Great Information !!
Hi mam, it's really amazing video and it's useful for me and others too. I have done my pharm.D now I'm planning to become an USA pharmacist...thanks for the video

Very informative. Thank you very much.
Please make a series of vedios step by step to prepare for each test.
Hello Ma, am on my final year of MPharm in Cyprus and I hope you can help me clarify few things.
from your explanation this benefits a person who is currently in the USA, but in my case am not so what are the possible steps I should take if I want to be registered by the NABP while living outside of the USA or its territories?
Thank you.
Hi. Thanks for the information.

Thanks for watching. So glad you liked it 😊
Ma'am, There is a change in the requirements for applying for FPGEE exam, they want 5 year of academic curriculum to enroll for it. I did my B.Pharm in India and pursuing M.Pharm now, I want to apply for US Licensure. I only have my B.Pharm registration certificate to applying for next year, so what should I do ????
1. If I will wait for 1 year, then what visa should I apply to get in US
2. Or else any other option for doing the 1 year course there, and applying for licensure!!!
Hey very helpful video mam! Can you please make a video on doing pharmacy after 12th in USA

Your response to my question will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Hi, Sidra...
What visa type should we apply for!
And what should we tell interviewers? Is it good that we say we want to work there as pharmacist?
Hi Dr. Naveed, I’m an international majoring in biochemistry and after I finish undergraduate, I want to apply to pharmacy school, is it possible that I can get internships in the us and work here? How long can I work or do internships normally?
Great 👍
Hello thank you for the informative video

Thank you so much

Worth sharing

Please make video on how to prepare for the test!
Assalamo Alaikum ..
Nice to see you....Tofel should be done in USA or we can do from anywhere??... Second how did you prepare to pass all these exams u mentioned??
Good day. Will the locations you’re doing your internship be required to sponsor your work visa?
Hi mam, Do we need only one book(Apha) to pass FPGEE or need multiple books ?
Can we work as pharmacist after passing FPGEE or need to pass NAPLEX at any cost ?
Hi, your video has been informative.Do you know which visa should I apply for completing my internship in USA, I am a foreign graduate currently in Canada
Can you please explain how to apply for graduation problems for non us students and do we still need to take fogee after getting Mpharm in us or just the naplex and law exam?

Hi Sedra! Wonderful video but If I may ask about the 1500 hours I am now in step 3 in CA and my question is do I need all the 1500 hours in a retail setting does it have it to be both hospital AND retail? Thanks in advance and also you are very pretty 😊
The board of pharmacy requires certain clinical hours as well. The best way to find the exact requirements is to check the application on ca board of pharmacy website.
Hi, Iam currently Studying, Clinical Pharmacy Pharm B (a 5 Year Course Program in Egypt), am I Eligible for the Fpgee and the Naplex Exam ?! Or do I need to take a Pharm D ?!

@@HMSVlogs Glad that I am able to help
@@AskYourPharmacistsidra yeah, you're.😊
Hi, great video! Thank you so much. Can I ask about how did you find the position for 1500 hours? Was it hard getting the internship position, anything to make it easier? Thank you!
Same question here pls reply
I volunteer at an independent pharmacy. Worked almost 500 hours there, meanwhile I was applying at ALL chain pharmacies and got job at Walgreens.
You forgot that u have some visa in the us that allows you to work. That's the main thing. No work visa, no placement. Period!
Isnt that obvious for any country!! I think the title of video is how to become pharmacist in US not how to work in US
Yes ofcourse you should have work permit or be US resident to practice.
How can i apply for pharm d course in usa, i am from bangladesh and i completed B.Pharm and M.Pharm degree.

What's the fastest time you can achieve this from foot in US to licensed pharmacist
Thank you for sharing, I m a foreign graduate where I can write my fpgee exam only from us or is it possible to write from my country
Due to not being able to perform well in exams I’m taking admission in D.Pharm instead of B.pharm after passing 12th grade and I can’t directly go for Pharm.D either 😔
So is it a wise decision that I’m making to do D.Pharm then B.Pharm then Pharm.D and then apply for license in the USA and give the required exams ?Please let me know ?
Also I’m 17 now so by calculating and estimating it will take me 8 years to finally complete my Pharm.D instead of 6 years as I will be doing D.Pharm and B.pharm too .
So what Do you think and reckon me about this decision please let me know I’m really confused and stressed about this ?
My brother and sister are in California too and as a family my parents and me also plan on settling there But I dont know how I will get my license there in Usa when I’m in DPharm now as I was not able to perform well I didn’t get admission straight in pharm.D
So it will now take me 8 years to finally be done with Pharm.D nd have a Pharm.D degree .
Can you please guide me it would be really appreciated and I would be really grateful ❤️😞

Hello , i need information about pharmacy in usa , i have canadian PR visa and right now i am eligible for pharmacy exam in usa and what is requirement of becoming pharmacy?
Sounds like a lot of work and time to me. What if my English level is not high enough to get a decent score on TOEFL? What if I´ve been working in the field for 10 years now and I want relocate to the USA and work as a pharmacist? Do I stand any chance to make a living as a pharmacist without the TOEFL.
If you wrote this whole paragraph yourself without the help of a translator you'll probably pass the TOELF
Is there any institutions who give training for these all exams or any Way to get material for study
How do we get the internship? Who will help us in getting this and visa?
Please I will like to know the minimum CGPA required.
