Schedule III–IV prescriptions may be refilled up to how many times within six months of the date written, and the total quantity dispensed cannot exceed how many days' supply?

For Schedule III–IV prescriptions, the rule is that you may refill up to five times within six months from the date written, and the total quantity dispensed must not exceed a 120-day supply. This combination protects access to medications while limiting how much can be dispensed in a given period. So the best answer is the one that matches both limits: five refills within six months and a maximum of 120 days of supply overall. The other options either give the wrong number of allowed refills or the wrong maximum days’ supply.
