Answer:

- The brand name of the drug must be dispensed.

Explanation:

DAW means "dispense as written." That is, the product's brand name has to be used to fill out the prescription. Can not substitute a generic form of the drug. Unable to replace another drug with a similar chemical name. DAW does not reflect unique patent rights.
