    Pronunciation Guide For Pharmacy Technician Students To Cancer Drugs List #1

    Uploaded by

    skdidden
    This guide is for the Pharmacy Technician student studying for the PTCE. This is a pronunciation guide of the most common drugs used for treating Cancer. The cancer drug guide is broken into two lists; list #1 and list #2. This is just one of a series of guides arranged by body systems to help you study for the exam. The pronunciations are done phonetically the way you would hear the word pronounced in a medical setting. It helped me tremendously to be able to say the drug name properly as I was studying. I hope by sharing these with you it will help with your preparation to take the PTCE. Good Luck.
