There is a Greek (ancient and modern) word φάρμακον (pronounced pharmakon).
English translations include 'sorcerer' and 'medic' and 'pharmacist'. The online dictionary 'Wiktionary' says this about the Ancient Greek word φάρμακον: "Unclear etymology, Pokorny (1959) connects the Greek root φαρ- of φαρόω (pharóō, “to plough”), φάρυγξ (phárunx, “throat”), from a Proto-Indo-European *bʰer- (“to cut, pierce, scrape”) (i.e., a medicinal herb or root as something cut off or dug up) ..."
The Book of Enoch provides explanation in the arts taught by the fallen angel Semjâzâ "Semjâzâ taught enchantments, and root-cuttings" but take note of the seriousness with which God condemns those who practice it (in Revelation 21:8):
"... they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”
