Abstract
A survey was undertaken using sample alumni of the University of South Carolina College of Pharmacy and the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and Science to attempt to determine practice parameters of male and female pharmacists. The study included male and female graduates during an 18-year period from 1961 through 1978. Data are presented relating sex to practice interruptions and the characteristics exhibited thereof. The results disclosed that 126 (34.7%) of the female and 21 (8.4%) of the male practitioners had interrupted their practices at one time or another following graduation. Furthermore, 88.8% of all practice interruptions among females was found to be linked to familial obligations.
