Pharmacy Technician Certification Exam Practice Question

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Selecting loteprednol ophthalmic drops during order entry can lead to a "wrong drug" error if the medication is not appropriate for the patient's condition or if a similar-sounding medication is mistakenly chosen.

Option A, adherence, relates to patient compliance with medication regimens and does not apply here. Option C, contraindication, involves a scenario where the drug is not suitable due to patient-specific factors, which is not directly linked to the selection error. Option D, high-alert, refers to medications that carry a higher risk of causing significant harm if used incorrectly; while loteprednol may be important, it is not categorized as high-alert in the same way as other medications.
