Question: 1 / 400

Can a pharmacist alter the quantity on a M3P prescription after confirmation with the prescriber?

Yes, if it corrects an error

No, but can add patient's address or PHIN

A pharmacist cannot alter the quantity on a M3P prescription under any circumstances. Option A is incorrect because the pharmacist can only alter the quantity if it corrects an error, not for any other reason. Option C is incorrect because the pharmacist can only alter the quantity after confirmation with the prescriber, not anytime they deem necessary. Option D is incorrect because there are circumstances, such as correcting an error, where a pharmacist can alter the quantity. Option B is the correct answer because while a pharmacist cannot alter the quantity, they can add additional information such as the patient's address or PHIN if necessary. This maintains the accuracy and integrity of the prescription while still allowing for necessary changes.
