1. Discuss requirements for becoming and functioning as a pharmacy intern.
2. Discuss requirements for reporting hours as a pharmacy intern.
3. Discuss duties performed by pharmacy interns.
4. Discuss requirements for functioning as a preceptor.
Background
Pharmacy internships play an important role in the profession of pharmacy. Both the
intern and the preceptor have something to gain. The participating intern gains valuable
hands-on experience and the type of exposure that simply can not be completely
duplicated in a classroom setting. The participating preceptor (and employer for the
preceptor where there is one) gains an extra pair of hands and welcome assistance in
completing the day’s responsibilities. Because the intern will typically view his role as
an intern as preparation for a professional future, he will likely be eager and interested in
pharmacy practice - and becoming proficient at it. The role as an intern is an important
stepping stone in professional socialization.
Intern-Preceptor Relationship
A pharmacy internship is the supervised practical experience required for licensure as a
registered pharmacist. The purpose of the pharmacy internship program is to provide
those individuals, who intend to become registered pharmacists, with the knowledge and
practical experience necessary for functioning competently and effectively upon licensure
as a pharmacist. A preceptor is required in order to carry out the pharmacy internship.
The preceptor is the individual responsible for seeing that the intern is properly
supervised and exposed to all aspects of an internship program. To qualify as a
preceptor, the person must be a pharmacist who holds a current identification card which
is in good standing. A review of recent Board hearings and decisions shows that

2. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
pharmacists who are found to be guilty of violating Board of Pharmacy rules or are
otherwise disciplined are limited in their ability to be a preceptor. The preceptor may
also be a person who is of good moral character and is qualified to direct the approved
experience at a site other than a pharmacy licensed as a terminal distributor of dangerous
drugs. Up to five hundred hours of the internship credit may be obtained outside the
typical pharmacy practice setting - as provided for in OAC 4729-3-05 (D) and approved
by the director of internship.
The Intern 4729-3-03
By definition, the role of a pharmacy intern is a temporary one. A person may become an
intern for the purpose of obtaining the practical experience required for examination and
registration as a pharmacist. While a person may pursue as a terminal career goal the
position of a pharmacy technician, the same can not be said of the position of a pharmacy
intern. To originally register as a pharmacy intern, the applicant must submit the
following to the state board of pharmacy:
A completed application form as provided by the board;
A head and shoulders photograph taken within the previous six months;
Fee;
An original transcript certifying that the applicant has in fact successfully completed a
minimum of sixty semester or ninety quarter hours of college work ; and
A certificate of enrollment from a school of pharmacy certifying that the person is
enrolled in a school of pharmacy and has begun taking professional classes directly
related to the practice of pharmacy.
In the event the Applicant already has a degree and is not enrolled in a school of
pharmacy and actively working towards the requirements for licensure as a pharmacist,
the transcript and certificate of enrollment need not be included. Instead, the Applicant
must submit:
Page 2 of 14 Copyright 2007 James Lindon (may duplicate with answer sheet)
3. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
Certification of having obtained a first professional degree in pharmacy from a
program that has been recognized and approved by the state board of pharmacy; or
Certification of having established educational equivalency by obtaining a "Foreign
Pharmacy Graduate Examination Commission (FPGEC)" certificate, and evidence of
successful completion of the "Test of Spoken English (TSE)" or its board approved
equivalent pursuant to rule 4729-5-34 of the Administrative Code.
Identification Cards and Renewal 4729-3-04
A registered intern will receive an identification card and must sign and possess the
identification card while working as an intern. A pharmacy intern may renew his/her
identification card each year provided he/she is taking professional classes directly
related to the practice of pharmacy and otherwise meets the requirements and rules of the
state board of pharmacy. The Board may, pursuant to rule 4729-5-04 of the
Administrative Code, deny the issuance of an identification card to practice pharmacy as
an intern. The identification card might be denied, and admission to the licensure
examination might also be denied, if the intern or applicant:
Has been convicted of a felony;
Has been convicted of violating any state or federal pharmacy or drug law;
Is not of good moral character and habits;
Is addicted to or abusing liquor or drugs;
Has been disciplined by the Ohio state board of pharmacy pursuant to section 4729.16
of the Revised Code; or
Has been disciplined by any board of pharmacy.
If the pharmacy intern has a legal change of name, the intern must report the change to
the board of pharmacy within sixty days from the effective date of the change. Such
notification of a name change must be accompanied by one of the following:
A notarized affidavit;
A certified copy of a court record;
Page 3 of 14 Copyright 2007 James Lindon (may duplicate with answer sheet)
4. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
A certified copy of a marriage certificate.
Each pharmacy intern, to whom an identification card or renewal identification card has
been issued, must immediately sign the identification card. An applicant for renewal of a
pharmacy intern identification card must complete the questionnaire. A pharmacy intern
may renew his/her identification card each year provided he/she is taking professional
classes directly related to the practice of pharmacy and otherwise meets the requirements
and rules of the state board of pharmacy. The state board of pharmacy may, pursuant to
rule 4729-5-04 of the Administrative Code, deny the issuance of an identification card to
practice pharmacy as an intern.
An intern will be considered to be actively working towards licensure as a pharmacist if
the intern has complied with all of the statutes and rules regarding internship since
registration as a pharmacy intern, and:
is enrolled in a school of pharmacy and is taking professional classes directly related
to the practice of pharmacy; or
is a member of the armed forces and can provide evidence that he/she has been
accepted for enrollment in a school of pharmacy upon his/her release from the armed
forces.
An intern who has obtained a first professional degree in pharmacy from a school of
pharmacy, or who has established equivalency by obtaining a “Foreign Pharmacy
Graduate Examination Commission (FPGEC)” certificate, may renew his/her license only
once. In the event of extraordinary circumstances and when due to no fault of the intern,
the board may approve additional renewals.
Internship Credit 4729-3-05
Earning and documenting internship credit changed effective April 27, 2007. The
changes went into effect at least in part to simplify the process and because students
typically earn many internship hours during their pharmacy school externships and
clerkships as students complete a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree. The pharmacy
Page 4 of 14 Copyright 2007 James Lindon (may duplicate with answer sheet)
5. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
internship credit requirement for the licensure examinations is deemed satisfactorily
completed when the intern has:
Successfully graduated after December 31, 2006 with a doctor of pharmacy degree
(Pharm.D.) from a school of pharmacy approved by the “Accreditation Council for
Pharmacy Education (A.C.P.E.)” and the state board of pharmacy; or
Obtained a total of at least one thousand five hundred hours of documented
supervised practical experience accepted by the state board of pharmacy which may
include any hours:
o Documented on a practical experience affidavit pursuant to rule 4729-3-06 of
the Administrative Code; or
o Worked in another state where that state board of pharmacy submits official
verification of the actual practical experience contact hours worked to the
Ohio board of pharmacy.
No internship credit will be granted by the board for practical experience until a foreign
pharmacy graduate has established educational equivalency by obtaining a “Foreign
Pharmacy Graduate Examination Commission (FPGEC)” certificate, and has established
proficiency in spoken English by successfully completing the “Test of Spoken English
(TSE)” or its board approved equivalent pursuant to rule 4729-5-34 of the Administrative
Code.
As the profession changes, some students would like to obtain practical experience
outside of traditional pharmacy practice settings. Practical experience obtained with one
or more practical experience affidavits may include up to five hundred hours of
internship credit at a site other than a pharmacy licensed as a terminal distributor of
dangerous drugs (e.g., manufacturing, research, consulting, drug information, and drug
utilization review). To receive credit for such experience, a formal request must be
submitted to the director of internship for approval prior to beginning the experience in
these areas. The request must include a detailed description of the contemplated
internship with respect to time, place, duties, responsibilities, professional supervision,
Page 5 of 14 Copyright 2007 James Lindon (may duplicate with answer sheet)
6. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
and the person supervising the experience. The request must be signed by both the intern
and the person supervising the experience and returned with a completed statement of
preceptor form. If approved by the board, the hours must be documented using a
practical experience affidavit pursuant to rule 4729-3-06 of the Ohio Administrative
Code.
Internship credit may be denied for the practical experience accumulated when an intern
is found to be guilty of violation(s) pursuant to Ohio Revised Code 4729.16. A violation
of Ohio Revised Code 4729.16 may be found after notice and hearing if the board finds a
pharmacy intern:
Guilty of a felony or gross immorality;
Guilty of dishonesty or unprofessional conduct in the practice of pharmacy;
Addicted to or abusing liquor or drugs or impaired physically or mentally to such a
degree as to render the pharmacist or pharmacy intern unfit to practice pharmacy;
Has been convicted of a misdemeanor related to, or committed in, the practice of
pharmacy;
Guilty of willfully violating, conspiring to violate, attempting to violate, or aiding and
abetting the violation of any of the provisions of this chapter, sections 3715.52 to
3715.72 of the Revised Code, Chapter 2925. or 3719. of the Revised Code, or any
rule adopted by the board under those provisions;
Guilty of permitting anyone other than a pharmacist or pharmacy intern to practice
pharmacy;
Guilty of knowingly lending the pharmacist's or pharmacy intern's name to an illegal
practitioner of pharmacy or having professional connection with an illegal
practitioner of pharmacy;
Guilty of dividing or agreeing to divide remuneration made in the practice of
pharmacy with any other individual, including, but not limited to, any licensed health
professional authorized to prescribe drugs or any owner, manager, or employee of a
health care facility, residential care facility, or nursing home;
Has violated the terms of a consult agreement entered into pursuant to section
4729.39 of the Revised Code;
Page 6 of 14 Copyright 2007 James Lindon (may duplicate with answer sheet)
7. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
Has committed fraud, misrepresentation, or deception in applying for or securing a
license or identification card issued by the board under this chapter or under Chapter
3715. or 3719. of the Revised Code.
“Unprofessional conduct in the practice of pharmacy” includes any of the following:
Advertising or displaying signs that promote dangerous drugs to the public in a
manner that is false or misleading;
Except as provided in section 4729.281 [4729.28.1] of the Revised Code, the sale of
any drug for which a prescription is required, without having received a prescription
for the drug;
Knowingly dispensing medication pursuant to false or forged prescriptions;
Knowingly failing to maintain complete and accurate records of all dangerous drugs
received or dispensed in compliance with federal laws and regulations and state laws
and rules;
Obtaining any remuneration by fraud, misrepresentation, or deception.
Any intern whose identification card is revoked, suspended, or refused, must return the
intern’s identification card and license to the offices of the board of pharmacy within ten
days after receipt of notice of such action.
Statement of Preceptor And Practical Experience Affidavit 4729-3-06
This rule regarding documenting experience is new. At the beginning of internship, or if
there is a change in preceptor or employment site, the intern must submit a completed
statement of preceptor form within thirty days of the occurrence to the state board of
pharmacy. The filing of a statement of preceptor form is not required for a change of
preceptor or internship site related to a school of pharmacy academic program. If an
intern has graduated after December 31, 2006 without obtaining a doctor of pharmacy
degree (Pharm.D.) from a school of pharmacy approved by the “Accreditation Council
for Pharmacy Education (A.C.P.E.)” and the board of pharmacy, the intern must obtain
one thousand five hundred hours of supervised practical experience, pursuant to
paragraphs (A)(2), (B), and (C) of rule 4729-3-05 of the Administrative Code, to satisfy
the requirement to take licensure examinations.
Page 7 of 14 Copyright 2007 James Lindon (may duplicate with answer sheet)
8. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
The intern is responsible for submitting two required types of forms to certify the hours
and supervision – a “statement of preceptor form” and a practical experience affidavit
form. A statement of preceptor form must be received by the state board of pharmacy for
each pharmacy intern within thirty days of beginning internship under a preceptor's
supervision. No credit will be given for practical experience obtained prior to thirty days
of the date that the statement of preceptor form is received by the board office; except, in
the event of extraordinary circumstances and when due to no fault of the intern, the board
may accept a retroactive date of filing for the statement of preceptor. The intern must file
a statement of preceptor form whenever he/she changes internship sites and/or preceptors.
A practical experience affidavit form must be used to submit evidence of practical
experience for internship credit. Practical experience reported on the affidavit shall be
the total number of actual clock hours worked during the reported time period rounded to
the nearest hour. The hours reported must be able to be documented by payroll or other
records which may be examined by the state board of pharmacy upon reasonable notice.
Practical experience affidavits must be signed by the preceptor and submitted to the state
board of pharmacy. In the event of the unavailability of the preceptor's signature due to
extraordinary circumstances and due to no fault of the intern, the board may accept an
alternative method for verification of a practical experience affidavit. Practical
experience affidavits for a calendar year may be submitted at any time, except that they
must be received in the board office or postmarked no later than the first day of March of
the following year. No internship credit shall be granted by the board for practical
experience obtained before registration as an intern or during a period when the intern's
registration has lapsed. Statement of preceptor and practical experience affidavit forms
may also be used to document any additional hours desired by the intern.

Interns are responsible for the complete and timely filing of all required internship forms
and documents. Practical Experience Affidavits must be received in the Board office no
later than March first of the year following the date the hours were worked. The Board
office will send a copy of the original to the intern stating the number of hours accepted
at the bottom. If the intern does not receive the statement from the Board within 30 days,
the intern should contact the Board office by telephone. Each pharmacy intern must also
file with the Board a Statement of Preceptor form within 30 days after beginning training
under a preceptor's supervision. No credit will be given for practical experience obtained
prior to 30 days of the date that the Statement of Preceptor form is received by the Board
office.
Intern Tasks
Interns perform a myriad of important and useful tasks under the supervision of the
pharmacist. Two common tasks, which differentiate the pharmacy intern from the
pharmacy technician, are telephone prescriptions and transfer [copy] prescriptions. Ohio
Administrate Code 4729-5-30 (D)(3) provides that an intern can receive the oral
telephone prescription if the pharmacist on duty who is supervising the activity of the
intern determines that the intern is competent to receive telephone prescriptions. The rule
clearly contemplates that only the “pharmacist on duty who is supervising the activity of
the intern” can make the judgment concerning the intern’s level of competence. Though
the rule does not specifically require such, it would seem to be a good idea for the intern
and pharmacist to discuss ahead of time whether the intern will be permitted to receive
telephone prescriptions while being supervised by any particular pharmacist.
Page 9 of 14 Copyright 2007 James Lindon (may duplicate with answer sheet)
10. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
Ohio Administrate Code 4729-5-21 (D) (3) provides additional guidance for interns and
oral prescriptions. The rule provides that the intern must immediately reduce the
prescription to writing, document the full name of the prescriber and, if transmitted by the
prescriber's agent, the full name of the agent, and shall review the prescription with the
supervising pharmacist. Prior to dispensing, positive identification of the intern and the
supervising pharmacist shall be made on the prescription to identify the responsibility for
the receipt of the oral order. The supervising pharmacist on duty is responsible for the
accuracy of the prescription. The supervising pharmacist on duty must be immediately
available to answer questions or discuss the prescription with the caller.
Ohio Administrate Code 4729-5-24 (G) provides guidance when interns send or receive
copies of transfer prescriptions.
The pharmacist on duty who is supervising the activity of the intern will determine if
the intern is competent to send or receive a prescription copy.
The pharmacist on duty who is supervising the activity of the intern is responsible for
the accuracy of a prescription copy that is sent or received by an intern.
The supervising pharmacist must be immediately available to answer questions or
discuss the prescription copy that is sent or received by an intern.
The intern may not send or receive a prescription copy for a controlled substance.
The pharmacist or intern receiving a prescription copy from an intern must document
the full names of the sending intern and his/her supervising pharmacist. The receiving
intern shall immediately reduce the prescription copy to writing and shall review the
prescription with the supervising pharmacist. Prior to dispensing, positive
identification of the intern and the supervising pharmacist shall be made on the
prescription to identify the responsibility for the receipt of the copy.
The pharmacist or intern sending a prescription copy to an intern must document the
full names of the receiving intern and his/her supervising pharmacist. There must be
documented positive identification of the sending intern and his/her supervising
pharmacist who authorized the transfer of the prescription copy.
Interns may also counsel patients. Ohio Administrate Code 4729-5-22 provides that
either the pharmacist, or an intern under the personal supervision of a pharmacist, must
counsel a patient or caregiver whenever any prescription, new or refill, is dispensed.
Interns may engage in dispensing and compounding. Ohio Administrate Code 4729-5-25
Page 10 of 14 Copyright 2007 James Lindon (may duplicate with answer sheet)
11. Pharmacy Interns Lindon & Lindon, LLC
provides that either a pharmacist, or pharmacy intern under the personal supervision of a
pharmacist, is permitted to engage in dispensing and compounding. Ohio Administrative
Code 4729-11-09 provides that a schedule V controlled substance product which is not a
prescription drug as determined under the “Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act” may
be sold at retail by a pharmacist without a prescription to a purchaser at retail, provided
that the sale is made only by a pharmacist or a pharmacy intern under the direct
supervision of a pharmacist and not by a non-pharmacist employee even if under the
supervision of a pharmacist.
Conclusion
The Board has adopted specific rules for becoming an intern and reporting experience for
internship credit. Identification Cards and Renewal are important parts of continuing the
role as intern. One thousand five hundred (1,500) hours of supervised practical
experience is required to sit for the pharmacist licensure examination. Like any
pharmacy credential, the intern credential is overseen by the Board and can be revoked
upon finding of specified misconduct after notice and hearing.
