As doctors, we talk about risk all the time – it's part of our job to weigh up the risks and benefits of giving a medication, not giving it, doing surgery that may help or may cause damage. And we talk about these odds as if the best next step is obvious. But it’s hard to weigh up risks before making a decision, and they can mean different things to different people. Let’s turn to the races. Backing a horse with the lowest (or shortest) odds to win the Grand National – let's say odds of 100 to 1 – means high risk but potentially high gains. The numbers are fact. But the odds mean something different to everyone: for some, it may be an unacceptable chance of losing your money, but others can only see potential gains, as they’ll win big if the horse does win. Likewise, any chance of erectile dysfunction may be unacceptable to many men, no matter how low. Others may consider prostate surgery for cancer is worth it. Others may be in the middle – it's acccetable under certain circumstances, such as taking anti-depressants, as they can feel better, but the side effect can be reversed if they develop erectile dysfunction and want to stop taking the tablets. It’s true to say that every treatment, surgery or chance of something happening carries a level of risk – we need to communicate how often the risk happens, how serious it might be, and alternative options. Let’s talk you through what the medical community means by risk, and how we refer to it here. And in any consultation, if you don’t understand something or need it explained differently, don’t be afraid to ask.

There are several different pathways a pharmacist can choose to go through, which is why it is often a prevalent occupation. All pharmacists have to have completed a pharmacy degree and a pre-registration course to ensure all meet a level of competence. There are three main types of pharmacists: community, hospital, and primary care. The former has the most significant number of pharmacists, whereas the latter has the least. However, now more so there has been an increase in the number of primary care pharmacists in GP practices in recent years.
