I did a search on Amazon for Pharmacy tech certification books and there is like a hundred of them 😱 . Can someone please recommend one that they used, or know is good?
 
I used The Pharmacy Technician, 2nd edition ISBN: 0-89582-650-X. There is also a workbook to go along with it. It had more than enough info and was very helpful.
 
i have Noah reifman's book it has enough info to pass the exam and really easy to understand. I am taking the exam on NOV 13. Also i got some material that my friend used for his preparation given by walgreen.

i used Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam Review Second Edition (ISBN 0-7668-1432-7) by Patricia K. Anthony. The book is comprehensive; however, there's quite a few calculation errors in the answer section. i briefly read this review guide and passed the ptce without any prior experience, so i'd recommend this book. read the reviews on amazon, i got this book because my local Boarders didn't have the highly raved review guide by Reifman.

good luck.

I used Reifman. I took the exam July 23rd and my composite score was well over 800. (High score is 900.)

Take from that what you will.
