Abstract: Complete Math Review for the Pharmacy Technician is a friendly, self-instructional approach to lifelong understanding of pharmacy calculations. Filled with real-world practice problems and the author's good humor and encouragement, the book is a unique training resource, whether for the classroom, the national Pharmacy Technician Certification Examination, or the pharmacy practice setting. KEY FEATURES: The edition thoroughly covers every topic related to pharmacy calculations that a pharmacy technician needs to know. With more than 100 advance practice questions new to the 4th edition, the book contains more than 850 practice problems spread throughout its 13 chapters, with answer keys and problem solutions in the back. This edition includes "The PI Challenge," which is more than 75 questions challenging the reader's ability to interpret information taken directly from actual pharmaceutical product package inserts. A chapter titled "Medication Errors and Clinical Challenges" tests the reader's ability to recognize medication calculation errors sometimes made by nurses, pharmacists, and physicians. The book concludes with a 101-question post-test, with each question being a real-world problem a technician might encounter in pharmacy practice. Written in a friendly, humorous style with amusing illustrations, the book eases the learning process--even for readers with "math phobia."
