A) have face-to-face interaction w/Mr. Cook each time he gets a refill
B) perform the final check of Mr. Cook's Lamictal order
C) prepare the radioactive medication needed for Mr. Cook's brain scan
D) prepare Mr. Cook's Lamictal order so that it can be sent through the mail

Answer 1

A pharmacy technician at a mail order pharmacy will primarily prepare Mr. Cook's Lamictal order for shipping, without face-to-face interactions or performing final medication checks.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Mr. Cook is using a mail order pharmacy to obtain Lamictal for seizure control, as a pharmacy technician, the most likely correct answer is that you will prepare Mr. Cook's Lamictal order so that it can be sent through the mail. It's important to note that pharmacy technicians typically do not perform final checks of medication orders or have face-to-face interactions with mail order pharmacy customers. Also, preparing radioactive medication for brain scans is generally outside the scope of a pharmacy technician's duties and requires specialized training and certification.
