Which statement about refills for a Schedule V (C5) prescription is correct?

  1. Unlimited refills are allowed

  2. Refills are limited to 6 months

  3. Refills are as authorized by the provider, up to one year

  4. No refills are allowed

The correct answer is: Unlimited refills are allowed

A Schedule V (C5) prescription is for medications with a low potential for abuse or dependence, such as cough suppressants or some mild pain relievers. This classification allows for unlimited refills, as the risk of abuse or dependence is low. Refills are not limited to a specific time frame, as long as the prescription has not expired and the provider has authorized the refill. Option B is incorrect because C5 prescriptions do not have a time limit on refills. Option C is incorrect because refills are not limited by a time frame, but rather by the authorization of the provider. Option D is incorrect because C5 prescriptions do allow for refills, as long as they are authorized by the provider.
