View Law]
Every written prescription issued in this state by a licensed practitioner shall contain two signature lines. Under one signature line shall be printed clearly the words "dispense as written".
Under the other signature line shall be printed clearly the words "product selection permitted". The practitioner shall communicate instructions to the pharmacist by signing on the appropriate line.
A pharmacist shall record on the prescription form the name and manufacturer or distributor of any drug product dispensed as herein authorized.
Unless otherwise indicated by the practitioner, the prescription label on the dispensing container shall indicate the actual drug product dispensed, either the brand name, or if none, the generic name; and the name of the manufacturer or a reasonable abbreviation of the name of the manufacturer.
AI-Generated Summary
AL Rx = 2 signature lines: “dispense as written” + “product selection permitted”
Prescriber signs appropriate line → pharmacist follows substitution instruction
If substituted/selected → record drug name + manufacturer/distributor on Rx
Label = actual drug dispensed + manufacturer name/abbrev unless prescriber indicates otherwise
