Nuclear Pharmacy Technician Training
A Nuclear Pharmacy Technician (NPT)
is a pharmacy technician who has received
specialized training and education in the nuclear
pharmacy practice setting. An NPT works under the
direct supervision of a licensed nuclear pharmacist
and performs many pharmacy-related functions that do
not require professional judgment. Each state Board
of Pharmacy has exact definitions of a pharmacy
technician. Each state may, or may not, have
definitions applicable to a Nuclear Pharmacy
Technician. For more information about this program
