How long is a prescription with PRN refills valid?

  1. 1 year or until the patient-physician relationship ceases

  2. 2 years from the date of issuance

  3. 6 months from the date of issuance

  4. Indefinitely, as long as the patient-physician relationship continues

The correct answer is: 1 year or until the patient-physician relationship ceases

In Wisconsin, a prescription with PRN (as needed) refills is valid for 1 year or until the patient-physician relationship ceases. This means that the prescription can be refilled as needed for up to a year from the date it was issued, as long as the patient still has a relationship with the prescribing physician. This ensures that the prescription remains appropriate for the patient's condition and allows for proper monitoring by the healthcare provider. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not align with Wisconsin pharmacy laws and regulations regarding the validity period of prescriptions with PRN refills.
