A rash from poison ivy, poison oak or poison sumac is caused by an oil found in these plants called urushiol (you-ROO-shee-all). When this oil touches your skin, it often causes an itchy, blistering rash. Most people can safely treat the rash at home.
Most Pharmacy Technician training courses run from about six months to a year, depending on the course. In that time, you will learn the skills required to operate a pharmacy, follow correct pharmaceutical procedures, provide the correct drug dosages, and assist the pharmacist in administrative tasks.
How long it takes to qualify the prerequisites may vary. Some schools require two or three years of study to gain entry, while others require a four-year bachelorâs degree. In order to gain entry into a pharmacy college, the Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT) must be passed by an undergraduate student.
