Final answer:

A pharmacy may transfer original prescription information for CIII-V refills to another pharmacy one time, but those with shared real-time databases may transfer up to the maximum refills permitted.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rules about the pharmacy transfer of original prescription information for CIII-V refills between pharmacies are regulated at the federal level in the United States by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Under current DEA regulations, a prescription for a controlled substance listed as Schedule III, IV, or V may be transferred for refill purposes one time. However, pharmacies that share a real-time, online database may transfer up to the maximum refills permitted by law and the prescriber's authorization.
