In West Virginia, purchasers are limited by law to a maximum of how many grams of pseudoephedrine or ephedrine per day without a prescription?

  1. 2.4 grams

  2. 3.6 grams

  3. 7.2 grams

  4. 9.0 grams

The correct answer is: 2.4 grams

In West Virginia, there is a strict regulation on the purchase of pseudoephedrine or ephedrine due to their potential misuse in the production of methamphetamine. As such, the maximum allowed quantity per day without a prescription is limited to 2.4 grams. Option B (3.6 grams), C (7.2 grams), and D (9.0 grams) are incorrect because they all exceed this limit and would therefore be in violation of the law. It is important for purchasers to be aware of these restrictions and to always adhere to them in order to avoid any legal consequences.
