1. a pharmacy technician can provide services a. only when authorized by a supervising pharmacist. b. only when supervised by a pharmacy assistant. c. when the supervising pharmacist is unable to come to work. d. without supervision whenever the services are needed.

The correct answer is option A, that is, only when authorized by a supervising pharmacist.

Pharmacy technicians function under the direct supervision of a licensed pharmacist and do various pharmacy-associated activities. They refer any queries considering drug information, reading prescriptions, or health issues to a pharmacist.

They work in a broad field of practice settings, like hospitals, community pharmacies, in home health care settings, in the military, educational programs, long-term care facilities, and managed health care organizations.
