Answer:

What is a drug that can only be dispensed by a doctor’s order because it may be dangerous

Step-by-step explanation:

Typically a 'prescription' is thought of an an outpatient medication request, and a medication 'order' is considered an inpatient medication request. Traditionally a prescription is something you may give the patient to fill at a pharmacy, and an order is something a nurse may administer.

I am answering this question, what is a prescription?
