Great for self-study!

Overall, this is a really good book. There are some typos, as others have said, but I didn't have any trouble understanding what they were trying to get across (typos are much more dangerous when math is involved, which is why I'm recommending another book entirely for that). I worked as a retail pharm. tech for three months, moved to another state, and have had to study for certification since the new state requires it. Even with three months experience, this book taught me a LOT about being a pharmacy tech that probably would have taken me several more months to learn on the job. The chapters are detailed, but not so much that it's information overload. All the material is very "learnable" on one's own. If you buy this book, I would highly recommend the Workbook & Certification Review, as well as APhA's Complete Math Review for the Pharmacy Technician (I fared much better using this book for math study than I did with the textbook). Math is a HUGE part of the PTCE; reading the text and learning some drugs is only half the battle. You really need to drill math to do well and the textbook (The Pharmacy Technician) doesn't emphasize it as much as perhaps it should. A book called Basic Pharmacology is also good to have around, but the first three are all you really need to pass (maybe even ace) the PTCE if you're willing to put in the time.

Textbook for Pharmacy Technician Program

If you have never worked in a pharmacy before and want to pass the pharmacy technnician certification exam, then you need more than just a certification review book. You will also need a textbook that explains comprehensively pharmacy laws and the operating procedures of a typical pharmacy. Because it isn't a certification review, be aware that it doesn't have enough practice problems. Overall, it is an excellent textbook to use with a workbook.
