Pharmacy technicians are getting pushed out and being replaced with pharmacy students. Techs get little money, lots of responsibility and there are not very many jobs available. I left the field about two years ago.
It depends on who you work for and where you live. I began working in the pharmacy at CVS and was paid around $7.50 not being certified. When I got certified, CVS only raised my hourly wage $.25. WOO HOO.... I was pissed. So I applied to Walgreens and I started out at around $11.50 being a certified pharmacy tech and I have been there now for 2 years and I am over $12 now. I have heard that each pharmacy does have a cap as far as how much one makes but I'm not sure what it is. Also, with Walgreens, if you become a senior tech, you make more money based on the amount of prescriptions filled.

Every state requires certification of pharmacy techs but the requirements may very from state to state.
Pharmacists legally sell medicines in the USA. Pharmacy Techs help pharmacists complete tasks in a pharmacy.
Pharmacists require a college education, but a pharmacy tech requires 9 months to a year of training.
