What kind of drugs can British Columbia physicians, NPs, and PAs prescribe in Washington?

  1. Controlled substances only

  2. Legend drugs and controlled substances

  3. Legend drugs, but not controlled substances

  4. None, without a US DEA No.

The correct answer is: Legend drugs, but not controlled substances

British Columbia physicians, NPs, and PAs can prescribe legend drugs, which are non-controlled medications, in Washington. However, they are not able to prescribe controlled substances, which are medications that have a potential for abuse and dependence. Thus, options A and B are incorrect. Additionally, they are not able to prescribe any medications in Washington without a US DEA number, so option D is also incorrect.
