Pharmacy Technicians process prescriptions, supply medications and medical devices to patients, and help stock medications. They most often work at pharmacies, however, can also be employed at long-term care facilities and pharmaceutical manufacturers. The average salary for a Pharmacy Technician in the United States is over $36,000.
