A patient would like a printout of their medication profile for the past 12 months as well as one for their child. In order to further assist the patient, the pharmacy technician should ask about the:

B. reason for the request.
C. insurance information.
D. patient's allergy history.
A. child's age.

The correct answer is: B. reason for the request.

It is important for the pharmacy technician to ask about the reason for the request as this will provide more context about what the patient is looking for. This will help the technician to accurately provide the correct medication profile for the past 12 months. Options B, C, and D may not provide relevant information for this particular request. Asking about the child's age may not provide any further information about the patient's medication profile and is therefore not as useful as asking about the reason for the request.
