Pharm.D graduate specializing in clinical pharmacy, drug information, and antimicrobial stewardship to improve patient safety.
PakistanWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Pharm.D graduate with clinical exposure across tertiary and secondary care hospitals in Pakistan, where I strengthened my skills in prescription screening, drug information services, antimicrobial stewardship, and sterile compounding. I focus on evidence-based therapeutics, patient safety, and clear medication communication through activities like medication review, dose adjustment, and antidote/toxicity guidance.
In my hospital placements, I supported medication management in OPD/IPD and operating-room settings, gained experience with immunization and oncology pharmacy workflows, and handled cytotoxic medication exposure. I also participated in multidisciplinary clinical rounds, performed medication reconciliation, monitored and reported ADRs/ADEs, and contributed to MTM and patient counselling—while building proficiency with tools like Lexicomp, Medscape, and MDCalc.
