I need help with understanding Naplex.

[newtopharmacy]

Hi everyone.
I graduated in 2009 in a different country, I did all i need to do to be able to take naplex. But since i have never worked in a pharmacy in the US, I feel like I'm out of the loop. I haven't touched anything pharmacy related in 4 years!!
So anything will help really.
I need to know what the exam is about exactly?
And do i need to know brand names?
thank you

You will need to know brand names of at least the top 100 and controls....check with your state, there are requirements for intern hours before you seat for the exam

As mentioned above, the nabp gives a blueprint of what you're expected to know. You may want to consider getting the Rxprep book and studying that. It's quite concise.
