Which of the following is a requirement for C2 medication dispensation during an emergency?

In the context of emergency dispensing of Schedule II medications, the requirement that a written prescription must be received within 72 hours after the emergency verbal order is crucial. This regulation is established to ensure that there is a formal, documented prescription following the verbal authorization given during an emergency situation.

When a pharmacist dispenses a C2 medication based on a verbal order from a prescriber, this prescription must be promptly followed up with a written prescription to comply with federal regulations. The 72-hour timeframe is intended to maintain both the safety of the patient and the integrity of the prescribing process.

The other answers do not align with the specific requirements outlined in pharmacy laws and regulations for emergency situations regarding C2 medications. While it may be important for prescribers to sign off on prescriptions generally or to limit the amount dispensed, these are not stipulations specifically tied to the emergency situation defined by the law.
