Inhalt:

The pharmacy technician profession continues to grow as the role of the technician expands with the increasing demands placed on all pharmacy personnel. Today's pharmacy technician faces more stringent requirements in many states and expanded practice and professional opportunities. Since 2017, pharmacy technicians have witnessed the launch of certificate programs from the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) and new opportunities to earn an Advanced Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPhT-Adv) credential and certification in sterile compounding through PTCB. At least 21 states now require technician certification, and opportunities to achieve this milestone are growing with nearly 700,000 technicians certified by PTCB and increasing availability of the Exam for Certification of Pharmacy Technicians (ExCPT), offered by the National Healthcareer Association. These changes heavily influenced this 5th edition of the Pharmacy Technician Certification Quick-Study Guide. This completely revised version aligns closely with certification exam domains and includes new information on leadership and professional development opportunities--all in a concise outline format for easy reading and review. Key Features  New chapter and content on professional development opportunities for pharmacy technicians  Updated information on key medical terminology; commonly used medications, herbals, and dietary supplements; laws and regulations; compounding; and the medication order entry and fill process  Tried-and-true explanations of mathematical concepts, pharmaceutical systems of measurement, dosage calculations, concentrations, and pharmacy business calculations  Sample questions at the end of each chapter reinforcing important concepts and knowledge, plus 125 practice questions certification exam content and pharmaceutical calculations  Answer key with step-by-step instructions for mathematical calculations First published in 1995, APhA's Pharmacy Technician Certification Quick-Study Guide has helped tens of thousands of candidates prepare for certification and bring deeper knowledge to their role on the front lines of health care.
