Question

a pharmacy technician should recognize that which of the following medications requires a black box warning?
fluoxetine (prozac)

digoxin (lanoxin)
nitroglycerin (nitrostat)
question 18
which of the following should a pharmacy technician check during a floor stock inspection?
expiration dates
sharps containers
dosage schedules
patient medication records

Explanation:

1. Fluoxetine has a black - box warning for increased risk of suicidal thinking and behavior in children, adolescents, and young adults. Amlodipine, digoxin, and nitroglycerin do not have black - box warnings related to the same high - risk mental health issue.
2. During a floor stock inspection, a pharmacy technician should check expiration dates to ensure medications are not expired and safe for use. Sharp containers are related to waste disposal, dosage schedules pertain to patient administration, and patient medication records are for documentation purposes, not part of floor stock inspection.

Answer:
