In Indiana, you'll need to be at least 18 years old, have a valid ID, and pass a background check to become a pharmacy tech. You'll also need to complete a training program that's accredited by the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP) or the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE). These programs are usually pretty short, lasting around 6-12 months.
Now, let's talk about the fun stuff! As a pharmacy tech, you'll get to work with all sorts of medications, from prescription drugs to over-the-counter treatments. You'll learn about different drug interactions, side effects, and dosages, and you'll even get to help patients understand how to take their meds correctly.
