How much can a distributor be fined for unknowingly distributing to someone who is not authorized to receive the prescription drug in Wyoming?

  1. $10,000

  2. $25,000

  3. $50,000

  4. $100,000

The correct answer is: $10,000

In Wyoming, a distributor can be fined up to $10,000 for unknowingly distributing prescription drugs to someone who is not authorized to receive them. This penalty is in place to ensure that distributors take the necessary steps to verify the authorization of recipients before supplying prescription drugs, helping to safeguard the public against the misuse or diversion of these controlled substances. The other options (B, C, and D) are higher figures than the maximum fine stated in Wyoming law, making them incorrect choices. The correct answer aligns with the specific penalty amount set by Wyoming regulations for this particular violation.
