Product Description Ideal for review courses and for individual study, this book is a must-have tool for anyone preparing to take the Pharmacy Technician Certification Examination. Concise reviews of the critical topics outlined by the Pharmacy Certification Training Board, along with review tests at the end of each chapter, assess your current knowledge and identify areas that need further study. In addition to end-of-chapter practice questions, two cumulative tests at the end of the book provide practice for taking the full-length exam. If additional math practice is what you need, you’ll find 14 chapters that focus specifically on math and include additional math questions. This new edition includes greatly expanded information on pharmacology, pharmaceutical agents, the effect of drugs on specific body systems and conditions, and drug interactions. | ||

Pharmacy Tech Exam Review I noticed many errors in the math calculation review answers. Drove me nuts!! Otherwise very good study book. | ||
NO NO NO NO!!!! Don't bother. This book is horrible. There are so many errors in it, and it is very frustrating. The exam questions don't match what the book says, and I had to buy other material. Don't watse your time and money. This is not a good buy in any way! | ||
A lot of errors! This book has *a lot* of errors. Thomson-Delmar has a really bad reputation not only for lack of proofreading books they publish, but for being slow to revise books that are found by customers to have a lot of errors. They seem to have little regard for their customers. They just want to sell books. They don't care if customers are left confused by poor quality. | ||
Great cramming tool It's a useful book but it does have some errors. I didn't study for the test until the night before and had never worked in a pharmacy but I easily passed the test. The PTCB test is broken down into 3 sections: 1. Assisting the Pharmacist in serving patients 2. Maintaining Medication and Inventory Control System 3. Administration and Management of Pharmacy Practice Don't get bogged down into learning about Pharmacology I didn't have time so I mostly skimmed through those chapters and spent most of my time on the other sections. Pharmacology was part of the 1st section (Assisting the Pharmacist in serving patients) and I did surprising well on it and I lost most of my points in the 2nd section (Maintaining Medication and Inventory Control System). This book doesn't spend much time on the 2nd section so you'll probably have to learn that stuff from another source, but if you're out of time like I was, this book should give you enough info to pass the test. Make sure you know Chapter 7-9 (math, conversions, and percentages/ratios) especially table 8-1 (common conversion factors). They're a big part of the test and if you can easily do these conversions then it will save you lots of time and it'll help you pass the test. Also google 'Gallon Guy' as it helps memorize some of the conversion factors. | ||
