Kenntnisprüfung Apotheker

Germany's oral licensing exam for pharmacists: 2,200 answers, 29 prescriptions

Prepare for the Kenntnisprüfung for pharmacists — the oral knowledge examination that pharmacists with a degree from outside the EU take on the way to the German Approbation. Nationwide: the subjects are set by federal law.

Please note: the app is in German. The exam is held in German, and every answer is written the way you would say it to the examiners. Practising it in German is the point.

2,200 questions from 24 areas of Pharmazeutische Praxis and Spezielle Rechtsgebiete, each with a fully worded answer, plus a prescription trainer with 29 recreated prescriptions.


HOW IT WORKS

Read the question. Answer out loud, as in the exam. Then reveal the answer and compare. The Kenntnisprüfung is a conversation: recognising the right option is not enough.


THE ANSWERS

Structured the way an examiner wants to hear them: definition, legal basis with the paragraph, mode of action, use, risks, counselling, practice — and a key sentence. Key facts are in bold: maximum quantities, deadlines, doses, paragraphs, limits.


THE PRESCRIPTION TRAINER

The exam often opens with a prescription on the table. 29 prescriptions — Muster 16, narcotics (BtM) prescription, T-Rezept, private and discharge prescriptions — with a missing date or signature, an exceeded maximum quantity, an expired deadline or an interaction only visible in the patient file. For each: the checks in examiner order and the decision — dispense, dispense after consultation, refuse.
