Which statement describes the PIC's responsibilities?

• A. Must sign the pharmacy's license
• B. Oversees inventory for the building
• C. Signs the pharmacy's state and federal license
• D. Manages social media accounts

Answer: (C)

Being the Pharmacist in Charge means you are legally responsible for the pharmacy’s operations and for meeting licensing requirements. A primary duty is ensuring the pharmacy has valid licenses at the state level and the necessary federal registrations, with a licensed pharmacist taking responsibility for compliance. The PIC demonstrates this by signing the pharmacy’s state license and the federal license or registrations, indicating they are the accountable individual in charge. Other options describe day-to-day tasks not tied to regulatory accountability—operational inventory oversight and managing social media—so they do not reflect the PIC's primary responsibility.
