Which information is NOT required on a prescribing record?

  1. Date of birth

  2. Patient's medical history

  3. Treatment goal

  4. Directions for use

The correct answer is: Patient's medical history

On a prescribing record, the patient's date of birth, treatment goal, and directions for use are all necessary information that is required. However, the patient's medical history is not a required piece of information on a prescribing record. While a medical history can provide useful context for a patient's treatment plan, it is not essential for filling a prescription. Omitting this information from a prescribing record would not impact the accuracy or safety of the medication being prescribed.
