No, a pharmacy cannot operate without a licensed pharmacist present. Pharmacists are required to oversee the dispensing of medications, ensure patient safety, and provide medication counseling. State regulations typically mandate that a pharmacist must be on duty during all hours of pharmacy operation to comply with legal and safety standards.
