What is the term for prescriptions that require disclosure of prior narcotics received?

• A. Narcotic Prescription
• B. Perpetual Log
• C. Tamperproof Tag
• D. Medication Storage

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is how prescriptions for controlled substances are handled and monitored. When a patient’s prior narcotic use must be disclosed, the prescription is referred to as a narcotic prescription. This label signals that the medication is a controlled substance and typically triggers additional safety checks, such as reviewing a prescription monitoring program and ensuring there isn’t overlapping or conflicting opioid prescriptions. The other terms don’t describe a prescription category for narcotics: a perpetual log is just a general record-keeping idea, a tamperproof tag is about securing the medication itself, and medication storage relates to how drugs are kept rather than how they’re prescribed.
