Which of the following is true regarding the closure of a supervising pharmacy and its impact on the remote dispensing site?

  1. The site may remain open for 12 hours

  2. The site must close immediately

  3. The site can operate until the next business day

  4. The site can operate for emergencies only

The correct answer is: The site may remain open for 12 hours

When a supervising pharmacy closes, the remote dispensing site may remain open for up to 12 hours. This allows for continued access to necessary medications for patients while arrangements are made to transfer prescriptions or otherwise address the closure of the supervising pharmacy. It is important for pharmacies to have procedures in place to ensure patient care and safety in such situations. This option is correct because it reflects the appropriate course of action in this scenario. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not align with the regulatory requirement of allowing the remote dispensing site to remain open for up to 12 hours after the closure of the supervising pharmacy.
