How pharmacy licensing works in Oregon.
Oregon licenses both pharmacists and technicians, and its pharmacists can prescribe from a statewide formulary and protocol compendium. Pharmacist pay is well above the national median.
NAPLEX plus the Oregon MPJE
The board requires an ACPE-accredited degree, at least 1,440 internship hours, and passing scores on the NAPLEX and the Oregon MPJE. Passing results are valid for 12 months.
Reciprocity with experience
Pharmacists licensed in another state need a NAPLEX pass, the Oregon MPJE, and either 1,440 hours as a licensed pharmacist over at least 12 months or a recent 1,440-hour internship.
Two technician licenses
Oregon licenses Pharmacy Technicians and Certified Oregon Pharmacy Technicians. The certified license requires a passing PTCB or NHA exam, and applicants need a fingerprint background check.
Protocol prescribing
Oregon pharmacists can prescribe under statewide protocols, including contraception, HIV PrEP and PEP, tobacco cessation, travel medications, COVID-19 antivirals and vaccines.
