If the same citation occurs within how many years must it go to the board for disciplinary action?

  1. 3 years

  2. 5 years

  3. 7 years

  4. 10 years

The correct answer is: 5 years

In South Carolina, if a pharmacist receives the same citation for a violation of pharmacy law, it must go to the board for disciplinary action if it occurs within a five-year period. This rule serves to hold pharmacists accountable for repeated infractions and ensures that patterns of misconduct are addressed promptly and effectively. A five-year timeframe is considered a reasonable period within which to monitor for recidivism, allowing for a balance between enforcement and rehabilitation. This period reflects a commitment to maintaining professional standards in the pharmacy practice while also acknowledging that time can bring opportunity for correction and improvement in professional conduct.
