The ethical principle of veracity requires that pharmacists:

Respect the rights of others to make choices.
Do good to patients, placing the benefit of the patient over other factors such as cost.
Act with fairness, to allow people to receive that to which they are entitled.
Act with honesty and without deception.

The correct answer is: Act with honesty and without deception.

Veracity is the principle of being truthful and honest in one's actions and words. Pharmacists must act with honesty and without deception, as their responsibility is to promote the health and well-being of their patients. This means that they should not withhold any important information or mislead patients about their health or medication. Option A is incorrect because while respecting the rights of others is an important ethical principle, it is not specifically related to veracity. Option B is incorrect because while doing good to patients is important, it is not directly related to being truthful and honest. Option C is incorrect because fairness refers to treating all individuals equally, rather than specifically being truthful and honest.
