For an electronic prescription, you can only issue one prescription at a time.

For paper prescriptions, the rules are different. Up to three pharmaceutical benefit items may be included on a single PBS prescription form except for Authority required, Authority required (STREAMLINED) items and optometrist items.

These items must be written on individual forms. PBS and non-PBS items should not be listed together on one PBS prescription form.
