What is considered a 'red flag' under the CSA?

Patient happy with any medication
Patient requesting specific medications and/or refusal of generic equivalents
Patient has insurance
Pharmacist is wearing a red tie

The correct answer is: Patient requesting specific medications and/or refusal of generic equivalents

A patient requesting specific medications and/or refusal of generic equivalents is considered a 'red flag' under the CSA (Controlled Substances Act). This is because it suggests that the patient may be seeking certain medications for non-medical purposes, such as selling them on the black market, rather than for their intended therapeutic use. Patients who are genuinely seeking relief for their medical condition are usually open to trying different medications, including generic equivalents. The other options, such as a patient being happy with any medication or having insurance, do not necessarily raise concerns under the CSA. Similarly, a pharmacist wearing a red tie has no relevance to red flags under the CSA.
