Terms Used In New Hampshire Revised Statutes 318:47-a

Whenever a pharmacist dispenses a noncontrolled drug pursuant to a prescription, he or she shall affix to the container in which such drug is dispensed a label that meets the requirements of the New Hampshire board of pharmacy; the prescription identification number assigned by the pharmacy; the date dispensed; any directions as may be stated on the prescription; the name of the prescribing practitioner; the name of the patient; all pertinent auxiliary labels; and, unless otherwise indicated by the prescribing physician, dentist, veterinarian, or advanced practice registered nurse, the name, strength, and quantity of the drug dispensed. All drugs dispensed to a patient that have been filled using a centralized prescription processing system shall bear a label containing an identifiable code that provides a complete audit trail of the dispensing of the drug and pharmaceutical care activities. A biological product, as defined in N.H. Rev. Stat. § 318:47-dd, I, shall also be labeled as provided in N.H. Rev. Stat. § 318:47-dd, VII. No person shall alter, deface, or remove any label so affixed. A compounded drug product shall also be labeled as provided in N.H. Rev. Stat. § 318:14-a, II. The compound drug product shall bear the label of the pharmacy responsible for compounding and dispensing the product directly to the patient for administration, and the prescription shall be filed at that pharmacy. Compounded prescription labels shall include the phrase “compounded per subscriber request” or a similar statement on the prescription label or through the use of an auxiliary label attached to the prescription container.
