What is the maximum quantity that can be dispensed for non-controlled substances?

The correct answer is based on state regulations regarding the dispensing of non-controlled substances. In many jurisdictions, including Tennessee, pharmacists may dispense a maximum supply of up to a 90-day supply for non-controlled substances, provided the prescription is written appropriately by a licensed prescriber. This policy facilitates better patient compliance and reduces the frequency of pharmacy visits, ensuring continuous medication availability for patients with chronic conditions.

The option indicating up to 30 days or 60 days reflects more restrictive practices, often associated with controlled substances or specific regulatory frameworks. The choice suggesting "no limit" would imply that there are no constraints whatsoever on dispensing quantities, which does not align with established guidelines for prescription medications to ensure safe and responsible dispensing practices. Thus, limiting the supply to a maximum of 90 days strikes a balance between patient needs and safe medication management.
