Pharmacopeius, an apothecary, or a person who prepares and sells medicines; but this word is rarely used but in the way of ridicule. It is composed of φαρμακεύω, medicine, and ποιεῖν, to sell. Hor. Sat. ii. lib. i. ver. 1.

Pharmacum, φαρμακόν, a medicine or medicament, either of a salutary or deleterious quality.
