Question: 1 / 400

What additional information is required on a unit of use packaging label from a retail pharmacy compared to a regular prescription label?

Brand or generic name of drug

The correct answer is A. The brand or generic name of the drug is required on a unit of use packaging label from a retail pharmacy compared to a regular prescription label. In a retail pharmacy, the unit of use packaging is prepared for direct patient use and should clearly display the drug name for easy identification by the patient. This information helps ensure that the patient is taking the correct medication.

In comparison, the other options are not typically required on the unit of use packaging label. The date dispensed, expiration date, manufacturer's lot number, and practitioner's name and phone number are more relevant on the prescription label itself to provide legal and safety information but may not be necessary on the unit of use packaging label intended for the patient's convenience.
