PTCB PTCE Pharmacy Technician Exam - Order Entry & Processing (35 Must Memorize Questions)

If you’re getting ready for the PTCE and want a realistic way to sharpen prescription workflow skills, this video walks you through the exact order entry and processing concepts that pharmacy technician candidates are expected to memorize and apply under pressure. It’s built for PTCB test-takers, pharmacy tech students, and new technicians who want a high-yield review that improves accuracy, speed, and confidence in day-to-day dispensing tasks. You’ll practice the essentials that drive correct data entry, including common sig codes and Latin abbreviations that appear constantly on prescriptions, like q.i.d., p.o., o.d., o.u., a.s., and gtt, along with how to safely interpret maximum daily dosing from directions such as q4–6h PRN. You’ll also reinforce what belongs in a patient profile for safe processing, why systems trigger DUR alerts like therapeutic duplication, and how LASA warnings and Tall Man lettering help prevent name-confusion medication errors. The review also strengthens your exam readiness for high-frequency federal rules tied to controlled substances and compliance, such as C-II refill restrictions, emergency oral C-II follow-up requirements, C-III expiration timing, and when controlled prescriptions can be transferred between pharmacies. You’ll revisit DEA number basics and verification logic, learn which DEA forms matter in workflow (including ordering and destruction documentation), and review core identification and inventory concepts like NDC segment meaning, lot numbers for recall tracking, recall severity classification, and perpetual inventory definitions.
