What are the limitations on faxing M3P prescriptions?

  1. No limitations exist; all M3P prescriptions can be faxed

  2. They can only be faxed during weekends

  3. Only buprenorphine or methadone prescriptions for opioid replacement therapy can be faxed

  4. They can be faxed with patient consent

The correct answer is: Only buprenorphine or methadone prescriptions for opioid replacement therapy can be faxed

M3P prescriptions have certain limitations when it comes to faxing them. Choice A is incorrect because there are restrictions on faxing M3P prescriptions. Option B is incorrect because faxing M3P prescriptions is not limited to weekends. Choice D is incorrect because patient consent is not the only factor that determines whether a M3P prescription can be faxed. Option C is the correct answer because only buprenorphine or methadone prescriptions for opioid replacement therapy can be faxed, while other M3P prescriptions cannot be faxed. This limitation is in place because faxing other types of M3P prescriptions can potentially lead to misuse or abuse of the medication.
