As many times as refills are authorized on the Rx
One time
Only within the same pharmacy chain
Unlimited, if verbally verified

The correct answer is: As many times as refills are authorized on the Rx

Under Wisconsin law, controlled substance prescriptions can be transferred as many times as refills are authorized on the prescription. This means that if a prescription for a controlled substance has multiple refills remaining, the prescription can be transferred multiple times accordingly. It is important for pharmacists to adhere to state laws and regulations regarding the transfer of controlled substance prescriptions to ensure patient safety and compliance. Option B is incorrect because controlled substance prescriptions in Wisconsin can be transferred multiple times as long as refills are authorized on the prescription. Option C is incorrect because Wisconsin law does not restrict the transfer of controlled substance prescriptions only within the same pharmacy chain. Option D is incorrect because the ability to transfer a controlled substance prescription in Wisconsin is based on the number of refills authorized on the prescription, not on verbal verification.
