How should expired, damaged, adulterated, misbranded, counterfeit, or excess drug products be returned to the manufacturer?

1. Without using a pedigree

2. With an updated pedigree

3. Through direct mail without quarantine

4. By reporting to the FDA first

The correct answer is: Without using a pedigree

Expired, damaged, adulterated, misbranded, counterfeit, or excess drug products should be returned to the manufacturer without using a pedigree. A pedigree is a document that provides a complete record of the transactions involved in the purchase and sale of a particular drug product. In the case of these specific situations with drug products, it is crucial to return them to the manufacturer without a pedigree to ensure proper tracking and safe disposal or handling by the manufacturer. Therefore, the correct answer is to return these products without using a pedigree.
