About this statute

This provision introduces a regulation on prescriptions and dose dispensing, defines key terms, and states that the Danish authority classifies which medicines are prescription-only. The section says prescription status for medicines depends mainly on patient safety risks, and medicines for food-producing animals are prescription-only unless several safety and use conditions are met. When deciding which medicines need special monitoring, priority is given to medicines with narcotic substances, possible misuse/dependence risk, or new/special safety-related properties. Certain medicines are always prescription-only, the medicines agency classifies prescription medicines into groups, and pharmacy medicines in group A § 4 may only be dispensed once per prescription. Apoteker may only dispense certain medicine groups under specific limits, and some groups may only be dispensed to hospitals or under special programme rules.
