Single dose packaged in a labeled container is known as what form?

• A. How supplied
• B. Forms of medication
• C. Unit-dose form
• D. Bulk form

Answer: (C)

Unit-dose packaging means a single, pre-measured amount of medication that is sold or dispensed in its own labeled container. This form is used to ensure accurate dosing, enhance safety, and streamline administration, especially in emergency and prehospital settings. The label typically includes the drug name, strength, expiration date, and lot number, and the container is intended for one-time use. In contrast, bulk form contains larger quantities and is not designed for immediate single-use administration, and terms like 'how supplied' or 'forms of medication' describe broader packaging or categories rather than a single-dose unit.
