What type of individual may enter a pharmacy when a pharmacist is not on duty?

  1. Pharmacy Service Associate

  2. Pharmacy Technician

  3. Pharmacy Intern

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: None of the above

In a typical pharmacy setting, when a pharmacist is not on duty, certain protocols are in place regarding who may enter the pharmacy. The presence of a pharmacist is critical for overseeing the dispensing of medications and ensuring patient safety. In Florida, regulations often stipulate that no personnel who are trained to dispense prescriptions may be present without a licensed pharmacist on duty. This is to prevent unauthorized activities related to medication management and to maintain compliance with state laws governing pharmacy operations. Thus, the correct choice indicates that no one, including pharmacy service associates, pharmacy technicians, or pharmacy interns, may enter the pharmacy without a pharmacist on duty. This approach is designed to protect both the patients and the integrity of the pharmacy operations.
