In this episode of TechPrep: Rapid PTCB Review, we review the anatomy and physiology of the endocrine system and its importance in regulating many essential body functions. Learners will explore the major endocrine glands, the hormones they produce, and how these chemical messengers help maintain balance within the body.

The episode also connects endocrine physiology to common disease states and medications frequently encountered in pharmacy practice, such as diabetes and thyroid disorders. This foundational knowledge helps pharmacy technicians better understand medication indications and supports stronger preparation for the PTCB exam.
