Which condition can Schedule III-V prescriptions NOT be refilled without exhausting a 7-day supply?

For Schedule III-V prescriptions, regulations often dictate how many times a medication can be refilled and under what circumstances. The correct answer, narcolepsy, is classified under this schedule because the medications commonly used to treat it, such as stimulants, are subject to stricter refill limitations.

Medications for conditions like osteoporosis, adult ADHD, and severe migraines may allow for refills without a prescription renewal under certain circumstances, as these conditions typically require ongoing management, but they do not have the same level of strict regulation as medications used for narcolepsy treatment. In contrast, medications for narcolepsy are tightly controlled due to their potential for abuse and dependence, hence the limitation on refills without exhausting a 7-day supply. This ensures closer monitoring and ensures that the patient is being assessed frequently before receiving additional medication.
