For how long is a CIII-IV controlled substance prescription valid in AR?

  1. 3 months from date written

  2. 4 months from date written

  3. 6 months from date written

  4. 12 months from date written

The correct answer is: 6 months from date written

A CIII-IV controlled substance prescription is valid for a period of 6 months from the date it is written in the state of AR. This means that the prescription must be filled within 6 months from the date it was issued by a healthcare provider. Option A is incorrect because a CIII-IV prescription is valid for longer than 3 months in AR, and option B is incorrect because it is longer than 4 months. Option D is incorrect because although it is an extended period, it exceeds the 6 month validity period. It is important to follow the specific state regulations for valid prescription timelines to ensure safe and legal use of controlled substances.
