What is one of the mandatory statements that must appear on prescription drug labels?

"Rx only"
"Use only as directed"
"Keep away from children"
"Consult a physician before use"

The correct answer is: "Rx only"

One of the mandatory statements that must appear on prescription drug labels is "Rx only." This statement indicates that the medication can only be dispensed with a prescription from a licensed healthcare provider. It underscores the regulatory distinction between prescription medications and over-the-counter drugs, emphasizing that these medications require careful supervision and are to be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Including "Rx only" on the label serves an important role in public safety and therapeutic efficacy, helping to ensure that patients receive the appropriate education about their medications and reducing the risks associated with self-medication. The other statements, while important for various aspects of drug safety or usage, are not specifically mandated as part of the prescription drug label.
