Pharmacy Technician Certification Board Practice Exam Practice Question

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Therapeutic equivalence is primarily assessed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which evaluates whether different drug products are interchangeable in terms of safety and efficacy.

Option A, the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP), focuses on medication safety and error prevention rather than therapeutic equivalence.

Option C, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), regulates controlled substances and does not evaluate therapeutic equivalence.

Option D, the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), establishes quality standards for drugs but does not conduct evaluations of therapeutic equivalence.
