Question
I want to ask what pharmacy careers don't require standing long periods of time.  I am planning to become a pharmacist but have trouble standing for long periods of time.  Is there pharmacy careers that sit most of the time?

Answer
Hi Vin,
Hospital and retail pharmacists spend a lot of their time on their feet. I am not sure about pharmacists working in industry. Pharmacists in drug information services for drug industry and government probably spend less time on their feet.
Thank you for using Allexperts
