What ratio must a pharmacy be operated with?

  1. At least two members to one pharmacy technician

  2. A ratio that ensures safe and effective pharmacy practice

  3. A fixed ratio of members to interns only

  4. There is no need for a specific ratio

The correct answer is: A ratio that ensures safe and effective pharmacy practice

In order to ensure safe and effective pharmacy practice, pharmacies must be operated with a ratio that considers the number of members to the workload and resources available. Option A is incorrect because it sets a minimum requirement of two members to one pharmacy technician, without considering the specific needs of the pharmacy. Option C is incorrect because it limits the ratio to members and interns only, without accounting for other necessary roles within the pharmacy. Option D is incorrect because a specific ratio is needed to maintain safe and effective practices, rather than operating without any guidelines. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it provides a more comprehensive approach to determining the appropriate pharmacy ratio.
