Question: 1 / 400

Can a pharmacist legally prescribe and fill a continued care prescription if a dentist prescribes medication outside their scope?

No, under no circumstances

Yes, but only in emergency cases

Yes, if the pharmacist is familiar with the patient's profile

When a patient receives a prescription, it is important for the healthcare provider who is filling it to have a complete understanding of the patient's medical history and current medications. This is to ensure that the new prescription will not have any negative interactions with their existing treatment plan. In this case, if a dentist prescribes medication outside of their scope, a pharmacist may legally fill the prescription as long as they are familiar with the patient's profile. Option A is incorrect because there may be instances where a pharmacist can legally fill a continued care prescription from a dentist. Option B is also incorrect because this scenario does not pertain to emergency cases. Option D is incorrect because the pharmacist does not need explicit approval from the dentist, but rather needs to have a familiar understanding of the patient's profile.
