Manitoba Pharmacy Jurisprudence Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Under what conditions can a pharmacist prescribe Schedule 2 or 3 drugs?

If the patient requests it

Without any conditions

If the medication is sufficient without needing a prescription from a doctor

Pharmacists are only authorized to prescribe Schedule 2 or 3 drugs under certain conditions. These conditions include the medication being sufficient on its own without a doctor's prescription, and other factors such as the patient's condition and the pharmacist's own professional judgment. B, C, and D are all incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the conditions in which a pharmacist can prescribe Schedule 2 or 3 drugs. Option A is incorrect because a patient's request alone is not enough to justify a pharmacist prescribing these medications. Option D may seem plausible, but it is not accurate because a doctor's consent does not give a pharmacist the authority to prescribe these drugs. Only under the specific condition mentioned in option C can a pharmacist legally prescribe Schedule 2 or 3 drugs.
