Rhode Island Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence (MPJE) Practice Exam

What must be documented on a partial fill of a CII prescription?

1. Date and RPh initials only

2. Amount of partial fill and date

3. Patient information and remaining refills

4. Doctor's contact details and signatures

The correct answer is: Amount of partial fill and date

When a partial fill of a Schedule II (CII) prescription occurs, specific information needs to be documented to ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The correct documentation includes both the amount dispensed during the partial fill as well as the date of that fill. This is critical for maintaining accurate records of controlled substances and ensuring patient safety, as it provides a clear record of how much of the medication has been dispensed and when. This requirement helps the pharmacy track the remaining quantity that has yet to be filled, aiding in both the management of the patient's medication needs and adherence to federal and state regulations governing controlled substances. Proper documentation ensures that patients receive their medications as intended while allowing for accountability in the dispensing process. In contrast, other choices don't encompass the full requirement of documenting both the quantity and the date, which is why option B stands out as the correct answer.
