My philosophy is that everyone needs to stay in their own lane. Specialists need to stick with their region of the body, pharmacists need to stick to the medications and interactions and doctors need to treat the person and insurance companies need to put health above the almighty dollar.
These days, a doctor gets most (if not all) of their pharmaceutical information from the pharmaceutical companies.
Pharmacists understand the chemistry behind the medications.
One time I was having an allergic reaction to a medication that I had taken before, but from a different manufacturer. The pharmacists drew a little chemistry diagram for me explaining where the link was that I was allergic to. While I didn't understand a thing he said, he was very detailed in his explanation to the nurse at my doctor's office and the two of them agreed on a medication change. The doctor wasn't involved at all since it wasn't a controlled substance.
