Review: The cover's so colorful! What cute little- oh... - I had to start with the cover because it's legitimately the first thing I noticed about this book (and part of why I clicked and got it; the other reason being that it was on promotion for free so why not?) and that title more or less sums up my journey of not only the cover art but also the book; it looks appealing but then you *really* think about it and well... Let me be clear that this isn't a bad book. It also isn't a perfect one but what cons I'll name are by no means a dealbreaker to me. But first let me name some pros. What most stands out to me about this is that it goes where the other book I've read by this author didn't; this one explains terms. I very much appreciate that all on its own but to my surprise (because again I wasn't looking for this, it's the cover that made me curious enough to click, which only after the fact did I connect that it must've been suggested due to the same author) this book is the answer to a “con” I had with that other book in that that one named names but didn't say what things like tonicity are. This one has an entire section on it. I think this does as advertised and shows how to calculate a bunch of pharmaceutical dosages but it even takes the time to first clarify basics like percentages and how to use SI units. That said this about halfway reads a bit like a math textbook, in that it's here is what this is and this is how you measure it, which fair, that's why we're here (and by no means do I say that as a criticism more like a heads up). Another, let's say neutral comment, is that while I think this pairs well with that other book I'm by that same comparison left wondering if that one doesn't better prepare you for PTCB just because I don't think the questions at the end of this book quite match the type of the ones at the end of that one (though again fair, in the sense that I think the questions of each book cover the content of each and while the subject matter is the same, like I said this one's more term oriented while the other one was more geared towards the PTCB test itself). And that brings me to my first true con. If both books are meant to help you with the PTCB then why the differences? Well, I think it's exactly that, *help*, to me this is a great support or as the book puts it itself: “The world of pharmaceuticals is vast and requires skill to navigate. I hope that my book has assisted you on your educational journey.” That last part I think is especially to be highlighted; this isn't meant to be a study guide to pass the test (that's its sibling) this is how to calculate and *prep* which to me means covering bases and I think this does that well. I'm no expert though so please do heed the warning given in the intro: “Accurate calculations in pharmacy can prevent medical errors; further underdosing may lead to subtherapeutic treatment, and overdosing may lead to drug toxicity.” So obvious as it may be, always **be careful** when dealing with pharmaceuticals. To conclude, this is a 5 because it delivers on what it promises but I would more strongly recommend this as a compliment to the other book (the comprehensive PTCB study guide, which I think even uses some of the same pictures?) but if you only get this one then just keep in mind that you're probably going to have to pick up other study materials because this one doesn't really talk about the test itself (if that's why you're looking into it that is).
Review: Complete educational and didactic material to prepare the PTCB and Naplex test. - Complete Educational and didactic material to prepare the PTCB and Naplex test This book entitled Pharmacy calculations PTCB and Naplex test and exam prep for pharmacy technicians Plus 2 full practice tests authored by Richard Douglas, is a compendium of educational and didactic content with the necessary topics to successfully pass the PTCB test and other evaluations to carry out studies in the area of ​​technical pharmacy, its contents are organized in a coherent manner and with a technical language appropriate to the professional and scientific level, from calculations, definitions, essential symbols, SI units, abbreviations, symbols, recommendations to carry out an exact medication. Decimals, fractions, percentages, density, specific gravity, ratios and proportions, volume weight, measurement systems, Roman numerals, aliquot, body weight, pharmaceutical calculations explained in detail and warning about possible results by not following the instructions and measurements accurately and appropriately to each case. Biological units, buffers, drops, milliequivalences are also addressed.After all these mentioned topics explained in detail, we find two practical quiz models, the first with 50 questions with their answers, the second quiz also with 50 answered questions with the correct selection option, it is a good way to practice for the real test. , because it exposes possible situations in the real practice of the trade, I think that when preparing for an admission test you have to study with a lot of dedication and perseverance and this is an excellent support material for the study for all those who wish to obtain the necessary certifications .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Comprehensive Medicine
*by A***R on December 21, 2022*

I write blogs for medical assistants and certified nurse's assistants, so I understand why this book, especially at just under 140 pages, has to be so comprehensive. Not unlike but more so than MA and CNA work, there's a lot of math in pharmacy which remains a fact though this author did his best to simplify it. The practice tests are a good addition to the book, But the topic of pharmaceuticals is also vast enough that it's hard to get all the right information in one place, especially a fairly small book. I knew little about pharmacy tech before reading this book but, from my own medical experience, this is a well-rounded read for pharmacy technicians before and after the pharmacy technician goes through the testing and then resume-writing and hiring process. This is also a good small book to have handy somewhere in a pharmacy drawer.
