What must the receiving pharmacist write on the face of the transferred prescription?

• A. DELIVER
• B. TRANSFER
• C. RENEW
• D. VOID

Answer: (B)

The main idea is that a prescription being moved from one pharmacy to another must be clearly identified as a transfer. The receiving pharmacist should mark the face of the transferred prescription with the word TRANSFER. This label signals that the prescription is not a new one and that it has been relocated from a previous pharmacy, helping maintain the correct dispensing history and prevent duplicate fills. DELIVER would relate to fulfilling a prescription, RENEW would suggest extending an existing prescription at the same pharmacy, and VOID is used to invalidate an original prescription rather than to indicate a new transfer.
