How is a counterfeit drug legally classified?

  1. Illegal

  2. Unregulated

  3. Misbranded

  4. Adulterated

The correct answer is: Misbranded

A counterfeit drug is not illegal because it is not a real version of the drug. However, it is also not necessarily unregulated because there may be laws and regulations surrounding the production and distribution of counterfeit drugs. Adulterated refers to a drug that has been contaminated or altered in some way, which could include counterfeit drugs but is not always the case. Misbranded is the correct answer because it is a legal classification for drugs that do not have proper labeling or have false or misleading packaging. This can include counterfeit drugs, but it also encompasses other issues such as incorrect dosages or ingredients. Therefore, C is the correct answer as it specifically refers to the legal classification of a counterfeit drug.
