Which is NOT listed as a type of hazardous drug under USP <800>?

  1. Drugs with reproductive risks for males and females

  2. Antineoplastic drugs

  3. Over-the-counter medications

  4. Non-antineoplastic drugs meeting NIOSH criteria

The correct answer is: Over-the-counter medications

Over-the-counter medications are not considered hazardous drugs under USP <800> because they are not typically associated with serious health risks, such as reproductive harm or therapeutic ineffectiveness. The other options, A, B, and D, are all types of hazardous drugs that have been identified as potentially harmful and require special handling and precautions to ensure the safety of healthcare workers handling them. Antineoplastic drugs are used for chemotherapy and have serious side effects, drugs with reproductive risks can have harmful effects on both male and female fertility, and non-antineoplastic drugs meeting NIOSH criteria are drugs that have been determined by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health to have potential health risks.
