What is the allowed ratio of pharmacists to technicians in retail pharmacies?

  1. 1:1

  2. 1:2

  3. 1:3

  4. 1:4

The correct answer is: 1:1

Retail pharmacies must have a ratio of 1 pharmacist to 1 technician in order to comply with regulations set by The Pharmacist and Technician Ratio Act. This ensures that there is a sufficient level of supervision for technicians, and that the pharmacist is able to properly oversee their work and ensure the safety and accuracy of prescriptions. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not meet this required ratio and could potentially compromise patient safety.
