I am so grateful for your channel. I took my exam 2weeks ago and pass on my first try. It wasn't until I received the email from PTCB that it all sunk in. Thank you for taking the time to put out theses videos I have literally watched all of them several times over.

I've never had fun doing ANY kind of math before, but I actually enjoyed doing this. The examples were great to work with. Also some good practice with the sig codes.

Thank you Amanda i was watching all of your videos it helped me a lot Passed my exam yesterday 😊

[@HistoryInvestigators]

Great video, thank you very much for making this. I've been struggling for over 2 years to be trained on days supply for insulin and no one would teach me properly or they would teach me too fast and I wouldn't understand. However, I really wish you went through how to calculate days supply for testosterone because I heard that is different

[@peaceloveandhappiness8377]

7:47 Will 200 metered albuterol data be mentioned in question itself?? And do pkg means package in question??

[@jasmintorres1638]

really quick on the oral liquid day supply, the second example when you're explaining about the "q4-6h" you said that the maximum that can be taken is 4? then you divide it by 24 because there are 24 hours in a day and that gave you 6.. i did not quite understand that. If the maximum is 6 than how come we had to do the math to find out 6 if it was already given? And also does that apply to every rx that i will come in contact with that has a similar sig on it

[@vnfinley2]

They 6 just happened to be the other number,, it wasn't a given.. they gave a range of when you can take another dose of the medication. It was saying to take it every 4 to 6 hours. You always have to dispense as if they take it every 4 because if you do it every 6, they would run out before their refill. If the question said take it every 2 to 4 hours, you would dispense it using 2, so 24 hours in a day divided by 2 is 12. That would mean they take it 12 times a day. Whereas if you used the 4, 24 divided by 4 is 6, that is 6 times a day and they could run out. Same with this question, every 4 to 6 hours. 24 divided by 4 is 6 times a day 24 divided by 6 is 4 times a day. Go with the more times a day so they don't run out

[@HistoryInvestigators]

You want to do the maximum used in one day which would be every 4 hours... I was also confused when I first started pharmacy school and was told to "use common sense" basically told I was stupid by my coworker for asking. If it is 6-8 hours for example you want to calculate by the 6 because it is the earliest they can take the medication. If they only do it every 6 hours instead of 8 you want to make sure they have enough medication... So you basically ignore the 8 hours and do the least amount of time they can take it so that they have enough medication if the patient needs to take it the earliest every time.

[@angelong4065]

Amanda, I don't know what state you are from, Can you also cover the 2022 PTCB exam

[@Spckl555]

Thankyou somuch for this!! Can you also show how to calculate days supply or quantity dispensed when its weekly injections ? Those are confusing.

So, all insulin prescriptions are 28 days

[@passionatehopper2354]

3:23 Can anyone say what does UAT and NR means in prescription??

[@stephw6046]

UAT = until all taken NR= no refills I hope this helps!

[@crazylegoman]

In those examples, that's an i not a 1. If it's supposed to be Roman numerals, it should be upper case.

This is basic math and boggles my mind that people studying for this test who find this difficult to comprehend are possibly our future pharmacists. God help us. Public, count your pills before you leave the pharmacy.
