B. Enteric coated

Explicación

## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify the type of aspirin that a pharmacy technician should select when a prescriber requests over-the-counter (OTC) aspirin EC. The term "EC" stands for "enteric coated". ## Step 2Enteric-coated aspirin is designed to resist stomach acid and dissolve in the small intestine. This is done to prevent stomach irritation and to ensure that the medication is absorbed properly.## Step 3Given the options, the pharmacy technician should select the enteric-coated aspirin.
