Nevada News: Prescriber's Name

January 1, 2009 10:44 am Topics: Prescription label

Reprinted from the January 2009 Nevada State Board of Pharmacy Newsletter.

Reminder: It is unacceptable to substitute a practitioner’s name on the prescription label. We often find a prescription written by a physician assistant-certified or advanced practice nurse labeled with their collaborating physician’s name, presumably to get the prescription through the insurance company. The actual prescriber is legally the name required on the label.
