Who can issue valid prescriptions for legend drugs that are recognized in Washington?

  1. Only physicians licensed in Washington

  2. Healthcare professionals licensed in any US state or territory

  3. Only physicians and dentists

  4. Anyone with a doctoral degree

The correct answer is: Healthcare professionals licensed in any US state or territory

Healthcare professionals licensed in any US state or territory can issue valid prescriptions for legend drugs that are recognized in Washington. This is because legend drugs fall under federal regulations and are therefore recognized across all US states and territories. Option A is incorrect because it limits valid prescribers to physicians licensed only in Washington. Option C is incorrect because it also limits valid prescribers to only physicians and dentists. Option D is incorrect because having a doctoral degree does not necessarily mean that one is licensed to practice medicine or prescribing medication. Therefore, only Option B is a comprehensive and accurate response that includes all valid prescribers recognized in Washington.
