Wyoming MPJE (Pharmacy Jurisprudence) Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following is a required element on the label of a prescription drug container?

Name of patient

The correct answer is "A. Name of patient." This is a required element on the label of a prescription drug container because it helps ensure that the right medication is given to the correct individual. Including the patient's name on the label is crucial for proper identification and medication safety.

While the strength of the drug (Choice C) is also an important element that should be on the label of a prescription drug container, it is not the only required element. Similarly, the pharmacist's initials (Choice B) may be present on the label to indicate who dispensed the medication, but this is not a mandatory requirement. Therefore, the best answer among the choices provided is the one that specifically addresses a required element, which is the name of the patient (Choice A).
