druggist
Medication dispensing professional
A druggist is a person who prepares and sells medicines—a pharmacist.
The term is somewhat old-fashioned in American English, where pharmacist now dominates, but remains in use: The druggist filled my prescription.
A druggist may also refer to someone who owns or operates a drugstore.
