What additional information must the receiving pharmacy record for transferred controlled substance prescriptions?

  1. DEA number of transferring pharmacy only

  2. Date of last refill and number of refills remaining only

  3. Number of original refills allowed, dates of all previous refills, and the DEA number of transferring pharmacy among other details

  4. Only the name and address of the transferring pharmacy

The correct answer is: Number of original refills allowed, dates of all previous refills, and the DEA number of transferring pharmacy among other details

When transferring controlled substance prescriptions, the receiving pharmacy must record the number of original refills allowed, dates of all previous refills, and the DEA number of the transferring pharmacy. This is important because controlled substances have a higher risk of abuse and the transfer of prescriptions must be carefully documented. Option A is incorrect because the DEA number of the transferring pharmacy is not the only piece of information required. Option B is incorrect because it does not include all the necessary details for a controlled substance prescription transfer. Option D is incorrect because it does not provide enough information to accurately document the transfer of a controlled substance prescription.
