What do you have to do before you prescribe a drug? Make a diagnosis, which is what is taught in medical school and not in pharmacy school. Pharmacists are frequently embedded in care teams in hospitals and primary care clinics where they make medication recommendations and know how to get drugs approved by insurance companies (sad that this has to happen...).

It's totally possible to have one party diagnose and another prescribe.

you are correct, doctors should stay in their lane and diagnose and leave treatments to others
