Abstract
Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm. D) Program, a patient oriented pharmacy education curriculum that is new in many of the developing countries and in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, and is running with varying success.1,2 The conventional industry oriented pharmacy education was unable to fulfill the requirements of healthcare system in terms of direct patient oriented approach and hence there was a necessity of introducing this course. The curriculum of these countries emphasizes on clinical pharmacy, pharmacy practice and provides basic subjects as in other undergraduate pharmacy programs. There has been a voice for the need for change in Pharm D curriculum in developing countries.3
