May a licensed internet pharmacy dispense prescriptions based solely on an internet consultation?

  1. Yes, without restrictions

  2. Yes, but only over-the-counter medications

  3. No, a valid patient-practitioner relationship is required

  4. No, internet pharmacies are prohibited

The correct answer is: No, a valid patient-practitioner relationship is required

A valid patient-practitioner relationship is required for licensed internet pharmacies to dispense prescriptions. Option A is incorrect because licensed internet pharmacies have regulations and restrictions that they must follow, they cannot fill prescriptions without an established patient-practitioner relationship. Option B is also incorrect because over-the-counter medications do not require a prescription and can be purchased without an internet consultation. Option D is incorrect because internet pharmacies are not prohibited, but they must adhere to strict regulations in order to operate legally. Therefore, the correct answer is C, as a valid patient-practitioner relationship is required for licensed internet pharmacies to dispense prescriptions.
