What constitutes a valid CSA prescription?

  1. For a non-legitimate medical purpose

  2. Dispensed to an ultimate user for a legitimate medical purpose by an authorized prescriber

  3. Issued solely to maintain an addiction

  4. For office use

The correct answer is: Dispensed to an ultimate user for a legitimate medical purpose by an authorized prescriber

A prescription is considered valid when it is dispensed to an ultimate user for a legitimate medical purpose. Option A is incorrect because a prescription should not be written for a non-legitimate medical purpose, such as obtaining drugs for recreational use. Option C is also incorrect because a prescription should not be issued solely to maintain an addiction, as that goes against the purpose of prescription medication. Option D is incorrect because prescriptions are not intended for office use and should only be used for patients.
