For which type of prescriptions must a pharmacist directly counsel the patient or patient's agent?

  1. Only for controlled substances

  2. For all prescriptions delivered outside of the pharmacy

  3. Only for over-the-counter medications

  4. For new prescriptions only

The correct answer is: For all prescriptions delivered outside of the pharmacy

Direct counseling from a pharmacist is required for prescriptions that are delivered outside of the pharmacy. The dispensing of controlled substances and over-the-counter medications does not mandate direct counseling. Additionally, direct counseling is not limited to just new prescriptions.
