What is the Beyond-Use Date (BUD) for an opened multi-dose vial unless otherwise specified?

  1. 30 days

  2. 28 days

  3. 21 days

  4. 14 days

The correct answer is: 30 days

The correct answer is A. 30 days. In general, the Beyond-Use Date (BUD) for an opened multi-dose vial, unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer, is typically 30 days. This standard duration ensures the sterility and stability of the medication within the vial for a reasonable period after opening. It is essential to adhere to these guidelines to maintain patient safety and efficacy of the medications being dispensed. Options B, C, and D (28 days, 21 days, 14 days) are incorrect as they do not align with the standard BUD for opened multi-dose vials in the absence of any special manufacturer recommendations.
