Arizona MPJE (Pharmacy Jurisprudence) Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

The Japanese encephalitis vaccine requires a prescription for a pharmacist to immunize an adult. Which of the following also does?

Flu vaccine

Hepatitis B vaccine

Rabies vaccine

The rabies vaccine indeed requires a prescription for a pharmacist to administer it to adults, particularly in contexts where it is needed for post-exposure prophylaxis. This aligns with public health guidelines and the specific indications for rabies vaccination, which can vary depending on potential exposure to the virus.

The flu vaccine, hepatitis B vaccine, and polio vaccine do not generally require a prescription for pharmacists to administer to adults. These vaccines are often included in routine immunization schedules and can be administered in a variety of settings without the need for a physician's prescription, as they are part of preventive healthcare measures widely accepted and promoted.

Thus, the requirement for a prescription for the rabies vaccine distinguishes it in terms of pharmacy practice regulations related to immunizations, making it the correct choice in this context.
