Manitoba Pharmacy Jurisprudence Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Can expired medications be legally kept on pharmacy shelves for sale?

Yes, until sold

No, it's illegal

Expired medications should not be kept on pharmacy shelves for sale as it is illegal to sell expired medications. This is because expired medications may have lost their potency and may not be effective in treating the intended condition. Additionally, expired medications may also have potential risks or adverse effects on patients. Therefore, it is important for pharmacies to properly dispose of expired medications and ensure that only safe and effective medications are available for sale. Option A is incorrect because even if the expired medication is eventually sold, it is still considered illegal to keep it on the shelves. Option C is incorrect because simply marking the expired medication does not make it legal for sale. Option D is incorrect because this rule applies to all medications, not just over-the-counter medications.
