    B.Pharma Bachelor of Pharmacy (Can be pursued after Diploma or 12th)
    D. Pharma - Diploma of Pharmacy (Can be pursued after 10th)

    The difference between B.Pharma and D.Parma is its duration and course content. B.Pharma is a 4-year course and D.Pharma is a 2-year course.

    Both D-Pharmacy and B-Pharmacy courses are having good careers. But D-Pharmacy is a Diploma course and B-Pharmacy is a Bachelors course.

    Hello,
    B.Pharma is a 4 year Bachelor programme that is the undergraduate level in Pharmacy and builds a base for wide range of topics in industrial, clinical and community setting. D.Pharma or Diploma in Pharmacy (not to be confused with Pharma. D) is a 2 year Diploma programme and provides the minimum qualification required to become a practicing pharmacist in India.
    Good luck.

    Diploma in pharmacy is abbreviations of D.Pharma while Bachelor in Pharmacy is the degree course, and now a time to get a job or fame, you must engage yourself in Bachelor's course, and otherwise you will be wiped out from all the competition.
