What quantity limit is set for other C5 drugs?

1. 120 mL or less

2. 240 mL or less

3. 180 mL or less

4. 200 mL or less

The correct answer is: 120 mL or less

The quantity limit set for other Schedule V (C5) drugs is 120 mL or less. This regulation is important for maintaining control over the distribution and use of substances that have a potential for abuse, even if they are deemed to have a lower risk compared to higher Schedule drugs. The limit of 120 mL allows for appropriate use in therapeutic situations while minimizing the risk of misuse. Therefore, prescriptions for C5 substances must adhere to this quantity restriction, ensuring both patient safety and regulatory compliance in the dispensing of these medications.
