pharmacologist

/ˌfɑɹməˈkɑɫədʒɪst/ noun

A student of pharmacology; one versed in the science of pharmacology.

Word Origin Pharmacologist combines Greek pharmakon 'drug, medicine, poison' and logos 'study' — so it's someone who studies drugs. Pharmakon was a fascinating word: it could mean both remedy and poison, a duality we still sense in pharmacy. The same logos root gives us biologist, psychologist, and logic.
