In the United States, the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act defines what requires a prescription. Prescription drugs are generally authorized by veterinarians, dentists, optometrists, medical practitioners, and advanced practice nurses. It is generally required that an MD, DO, PA, OD, DPM, NMD, ND, DVM, DDS, or DMD, some Psychologists (see Medical Psychology), Nurse Practitioners and other APRNs write the prescription; basic-level registered nurses, medical assistants, emergency medical technicians, psychologists, and social workers as examples, do not have the authority to prescribe drugs.[1]"Just puttin on the foil" - Jeff Hanson

Yeah - all types of medical practitioners can. That's what I meant.
I wasn't aware that nurses can fill out prescriptions. But they can probably only write out prescriptions if the doctor has instructed them to do so, right?A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.
