What action must a pharmacist take after dispensing an emergency refill?

  1. Document the dispensing in the patient's profile

  2. Immediately contact the prescriber

  3. Notify the prescriber promptly

  4. No action is required

The correct answer is: Notify the prescriber promptly

A pharmacist must notify the prescriber promptly after dispensing an emergency refill because it is important for the prescriber to be aware of any changes to the patient's medication regimen. Option A, documenting the dispensing, is important for record-keeping but does not involve informing the prescriber. Option B, contacting the prescriber immediately, may not be necessary unless there is a potential drug interaction or other issue that requires immediate attention. Option D, no action being required, is incorrect as notifying the prescriber is a necessary action after an emergency refill.
