West Virginia MPJE (Pharmacy Jurisprudence) Practice Exam

Which of the following is not a requirement for the logbook for pseudoephedrine and ephedrine sales?

1. Items and quantity received

2. Staff verifies photo ID

3. Customer's name and address

4. Customer's phone number

The correct answer is: Items and quantity received

The correct choice identifies a requirement for the logbook for pseudoephedrine and ephedrine sales that is not mandated. In West Virginia, the law requires specific information to be recorded when these products are sold in order to track their distribution and prevent abuse. The logbook must include details such as the customer’s name, address, and the amount of product sold. While it is necessary for staff to verify a customer’s photo ID and log the customer’s information, the recording of items and quantity received refers to inventory management rather than the sales logbook. The logbook primarily focuses on the sales transaction to ensure accountability and compliance with regulations aimed at controlling substances that can be misused for illicit purposes. Thus, the inclusion of inventory items and their quantities is not a requirement for the sales logbook.
