This is a must-have, quick review of federal pharmacy law, regulations, and agencies. This is perfect for anyone taking a state MPJE exam. If you are like most pharmacists or pharmacy students, you enjoy taking care of patients, identifying drug therapy problems, and making a difference by using your expert knowledge about medications. Unfortunately, having a basic understanding of laws, regulations, and regulatory agencies that impact the profession is a necessary evil. If you cannot pass the state law exam (MPJE), you can't work as a pharmacist and do all the really cool things that you've wanted to do (including pay off your student loans). MPJE Master: Federal Pharmacy Law Review was intended to simplify the process of learning pharmacy law. We've outlined critical components of federal pharmacy law that you will need to know to pass your MPJE exam. I was always the student in school that needed to highlight the most important information to remember and then I would memorize that information. Recalling information from a large textbook was always difficult for me. Rather than reading a textbook, we've supplied the information in easily digestible, bite-sized pieces. We've used bullet points to help you be able to quickly memorize important facts about each agency, regulation, law, etc. We've also created a super-helpful list of questions within the book to help you identify areas of pharmacy practice where state laws can often vary. This table is a list of questions that you can fill in as you read your respective states' laws and regulations. We've added this to ensure that you don't overlook the important differences in pharmacy laws across the United States. Whether you are a new graduate who needs to pass your law exam to begin your practice or a 20-year veteran who is moving to a new state, this review will absolutely help prepare you to pass your MPJE law exam and help you obtain your pharmacy license.
