Free IL-MPJE Practice Questions

Question 1

In September 2026, an applicant who has passed the NAPLEX elects Illinois's ILPRO pathway instead of taking the Illinois MPJE. Under IDFPR's transition instructions, what should the applicant do about the jurisprudence examination requirement?

Accepted Answer

Ask Continental Testing Services to waive the Illinois MPJE while completing ILPRO

Answer

Complete ILPRO and the MPJE because ILPRO is only a continuing-education course

Answer

Wait until one failed MPJE attempt before becoming eligible to use ILPRO

Answer

Begin practicing after ILPRO because NAPLEX passage itself creates an Illinois license

Question 2

A patient starting warfarin hands a registered pharmacy technician a medication list and asks whether ibuprofen is safe to take. Which response keeps the technician within Illinois scope?

Accepted Answer

Record the medication history and allergies, then refer the clinical question to the pharmacist

Answer

Review the interaction and recommend acetaminophen instead

Answer

Resolve the interaction alert in the dispensing system and document the technician's clinical decision

Answer

Explain that occasional ibuprofen is acceptable if taken with food

Question 3

An Illinois pharmacist is disciplined by another state's board on April 8. The order concerns recordkeeping and does not restrict the pharmacist's Illinois practice. What must the pharmacist do?

Accepted Answer

Inform the Illinois Division within 60 days

Answer

Disclose the order only on the next Illinois renewal application

Answer

Report it within 30 days only if controlled substances were involved

Answer

Wait for IDFPR to request the disciplinary record

Question 4

At the second Illinois pharmacist-license renewal after original licensure, a pharmacist documents 30 CE hours completed during the preceding 24 months. None of the hours concerns pharmacy law. Which conclusion is correct under the law effective in 2026?

Accepted Answer

The pharmacist lacks the 2 pharmacy-law CE hours required after the first renewal

Answer

The pharmacist is exempt because CE begins after the second renewal

Answer

The 30-hour total automatically satisfies every content-specific CE requirement, regardless of the subject matter completed

Answer

The pharmacist must retake the MPJE instead of adding pharmacy-law CE

Question 5

Two prescriptions are ready for a returning patient: an unchanged lisinopril refill and a metformin prescription whose strength increased from 500 mg to 1,000 mg. The patient has not refused counseling. What does Illinois require?

Accepted Answer

The pharmacist must counsel verbally on metformin and offer counseling on lisinopril

Answer

Only an offer is required for both because the patient is not new to the pharmacy

Answer

A technician may provide the required counseling because the change is limited to strength

Answer

Written leaflets satisfy both obligations unless the patient requests a discussion

Question 6

An 8-year-old arrives with a parent for influenza vaccination under a valid physician standing order. The vaccine information statement is provided, all protocol requirements are met, and a trained registered pharmacy technician will administer the dose while the pharmacist directly supervises and has determined it is appropriate. Which action is permitted?

Accepted Answer

Allow the technician to administer the vaccine under the pharmacist's direct supervision

Answer

Refer the child because pharmacy personnel may vaccinate only patients 12 or older

Answer

Require a patient-specific prescription because a standing order cannot cover a minor

Answer

Require the pharmacist to give the injection because technicians may only prepare vaccines

Question 7

In February 2026, a trained registered pharmacy technician collects a specimen and runs a CLIA-waived influenza test under pharmacist supervision. The result is positive, the patient meets the protocol with no referral criteria, and the technician proposes selecting and ordering the antiviral. Which allocation of duties complies with Illinois law?

Accepted Answer

The technician may perform delegated technical tasks; the pharmacist must interpret the result and order therapy

Answer

The technician may perform the test and order therapy after documenting training

Answer

The technician may interpret the result, but only the original prescriber may select and order any therapy

Answer

The technician may collect history but may not handle the specimen or operate the test

Question 8

An emergency-department physician treating a disoriented patient calls the patient's community pharmacy for the current medication profile. The pharmacist verifies the physician's identity and treatment purpose. Which response complies with HIPAA?

Accepted Answer

Disclose the relevant medication profile for treatment without a signed authorization

Answer

Require a signed patient authorization before disclosing any medication information

Answer

Release only the drug names because dosage information exceeds the minimum necessary

Answer

Decline the request until the patient regains capacity and personally consents

Question 9

A licensed long-term-care facility returns unused unit-dose tablets dispensed for a resident. Licensed personnel controlled administration; the sealed packages were stored correctly, remain within date, show no contamination, and the return can be documented without duplicate payment. What may the dispensing pharmacy do under Illinois law?

Accepted Answer

Accept the drugs under the institutional-facility return exception

Answer

Accept the tablets only for destruction because no dispensed drug may ever be returned

Answer

Return them to stock only after the resident signs a blanket waiver

Answer

Refuse the return unless the manufacturer has issued a recall

Accepted Answer

Within 30 days, to I-CARE or the patient's named primary healthcare provider

Answer

Within 24 hours, to both VAERS and the patient's primary healthcare provider regardless of outcome

Answer

Within 7 days, to the Illinois Division only

Answer

At the next license renewal, to I-CARE only
