"If I were a drug, I'd be Prozac. People have told me I have a unique sense of humor and I bring a smile to others' faces. Similarly, Prozac, as an antidepressant, helps regulate moods and works with neurotransmitters to regulate chemical imbalances in the brain, ultimately cheering people up. I hope that my presence cheers people up, brings out the best in them, and helps them bring a smile to their faces."

There are no right or wrong answers here, as long as you give a thorough answer. Try to be creative and shed some light on your personality or your reasons for pursuing pharmacy fellowship training. Some ways to think about this would be to talk about a drug that helps a disease or sickness you are passionate about or talk about a drug that personifies who you are in a unique way.
