Sample Questions

Question 1

They are subject to additional controls including secure storage, recording in a drugs register, and (in many states) a prescribing permit for some indications
They may be supplied on a verbal order with no written prescription required
They can be supplied without any prescription as Pharmacist Only medicines
They are exempt from real-time prescription monitoring requirements
Question 2
A patient presents a PBS Authority Required (STREAMLINED) prescription for a medicine. What is the key practical difference between a streamlined authority and a phone/online authority prescription?
A streamlined authority requires the prescriber to contact Services Australia to obtain an approval number before writing it
A streamlined authority uses a published 4-digit code and does not require the prescriber to contact Services Australia for an approval number
A streamlined authority can only be dispensed once and cannot have repeats
A streamlined authority must be co-signed by a second pharmacist before supply
Question 3
A pharmacist receives a prescription for a Schedule 4 medicine that is not listed on the PBS. The patient wants it supplied. Which statement is CORRECT regarding this supply?
The medicine cannot legally be supplied because it is not on the PBS
The patient must first obtain an Authority approval number from Services Australia
The medicine may be supplied as a private (non-PBS) prescription at the pharmacy's private price
The medicine must be downscheduled to Schedule 3 before it can be supplied
Question 4
A 35-year-old woman asks for a Pharmacist Only (Schedule 3) supply of a triptan for migraine. Under the legal and professional framework, what must the pharmacist do before supply?
Supply automatically because S3 medicines can be requested by name without any assessment
Refer every S3 request to a medical practitioner
Refuse all S3 supplies unless a prescription is presented
Make a professional assessment of the patient's suitability, including a prior medical diagnosis of migraine, and counsel appropriately
Question 5
A patient asks the pharmacist to release a copy of their dispensing history to their adult son, who is not their carer and has no documented authority. Under privacy obligations, what is the MOST appropriate response?
Decline to release the information without the patient's consent or lawful authority to disclose
Provide the records to the son because they are a close family member
Release a summary only, as full records require consent but summaries do not
Release the information if the son verbally confirms he is helping with medicines
