I'm sorry, but I cannot provide a full answer to the first question as the prescriptions and their directions were not provided in the prompt. Please provide the necessary information.

Regarding the second set of questions, here are the answers:

The ratio of RPH (Registered Pharmacist) to Tech (Pharmacy Technician) in California is 1:2. This means that for every registered pharmacist, there must be at least two pharmacy technicians.

The duties that a pharmacy technician can perform in California include receiving and interpreting prescription orders, compounding medications, preparing and labeling medications, dispensing medications to patients, and performing administrative tasks such as record-keeping and inventory management. However, these duties must be performed under the direct supervision of a licensed pharmacist.

In California, pharmacy technicians are not required to be licensed. However, they must complete a training program approved by the California State Board of Pharmacy and pass the Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam (PTCE) offered by the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) or the Exam for the Certification of Pharmacy Technicians (ExCPT) offered by the National Healthcareer Association (NHA). They must also complete continuing education courses to maintain their certification.
