Does anyone know if it is legal or illegal to have a pharmacists licence and a medical licence at the same time?

I am currently a pharmacy student applying for med school and want to be able to work part time during med school and residency as pharmacist since they are paid pretty good. Couldn't findanything in the laws (for Colorado at least) thatsays you cant do that.

no, it's not illegal, but you do have to keep up with your CEU's in both fields to be in compliance. I hold an IL and AL speech-language pathology license and I know many nurses who later became physicians that hold dual licensure.
