I had Strauss BOOK
Looking at this book for the first time is soooo scary and it'll shut you OFF!!!
It was a very helpful book. Start from the last chapters first. read about FDA , FD&C act, Controlled Sub. Act, orange book, Medical devices, Coloring agents. Skip all the details. Know the FDA , DEA, FTC, DEPT of AGRICULTURE and CPSP authorities.
Read the State Statues well...
The Exam is not from the books!!! the questions are in the form of situations . For exxample " you are the PharmD and some one presented you RX, blaaa blaa blaaa blaaa" what would you do?? !!!
-Call MD
-refuse to fill it
_call the Board
-etc....
some stuff like that
know the Board authorities
know the controlled subsctace really wellllllllll
know the otc and rx drugs behind the pharmacy counter "like c-v have some OTC products and Insulins; some of them are OTC"
know how and for how long and where to file your inventory and paperwork regarding the federal and local regulatons.
know the child resistant and the tamper resistant packaging and which ACT it is requlated by
know the adulteration and misbranding.
know the proper labeling in "community pharmacy, nursing home or hospital.
know the proper labeling when copying , transfering or partialling an RX or controlled sub.
They won't ask you rough or dry questions, they will ask you professional and pharmaceutical ones.
good luck
ask me if you have any questions.
yours
