What is the maximum supply limitation for codeine-containing drugs prescribed by an optometrist in Wyoming?

  1. 3-day supply

  2. 7-day supply

  3. 10-day supply

  4. 30-day supply

The correct answer is: 3-day supply

In Wyoming, the maximum supply limitation for codeine-containing drugs prescribed by an optometrist is a 3-day supply. This limitation is in place to ensure the appropriate and safe use of medications containing codeine, which is an opioid medication with the potential for abuse and dependence. Optometrists are allowed to prescribe certain medications within their scope of practice, but with restrictions to protect patient safety and prevent misuse. This restriction aligns with the efforts to combat the opioid epidemic by limiting the amount of codeine-containing drugs that can be prescribed by optometrists.
