  2. Pharmacy technicians play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth operation of medicine shops, especially in places like Kolkata. They not only manage inventories and distribute medications but also directly interact with patients, answering queries about dosages and side effects. For instance, if you visit a reputable pharmacy and are prescribed Virolfi 450 mg, a pharmacy technician might educate you on how to take the medication properly, its potential side effects, and answer any concerns.
