• Jurisdiction: Wyoming
• Title 35: Public Health and Safety
• Ch. 6: IMITATION BUTTER AND CHEESE; OLEOMARGARINE
• Art. 10: CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES

Text

(a) The board shall register an applicant to manufacture
or distribute controlled substances included in W.S. 35-7-1014,
35-7-1016, 35-7-1018, 35-7-1020 and 35-7-1022 unless it
determines that the issuance of that registration would be
inconsistent with the public interest. In determining the public
interest, the board shall consider the following factors:
(i) Maintenance of effective controls against
diversion of controlled substances into other than legitimate
medical, scientific, or industrial channels;
(ii) Compliance with applicable state and local law;
(iii) Any convictions of the applicant under any
federal and state laws relating to any controlled substance;
(iv) Past experience in the manufacture or
distribution of controlled substances, and the existence in the
applicant's establishment of effective controls against
diversion;
(v) Furnishing by the applicant of false or
fraudulent material in any application filed under this act;
(vi) Suspension or revocation of the applicant's
federal registration to manufacture, distribute, or dispense
controlled substances as authorized by federal law; and
(vii) Any other factors relevant to and consistent
with the public health and safety.
(b) Registration under subsection (a) of this section does
not entitle a registrant to manufacture and distribute
controlled substances in Schedule I or II other than those
specified in the registration.
(c) Practitioners shall be registered to dispense any
controlled substances or to conduct research with controlled
substances in Schedules II through V if they are authorized to
dispense or conduct research under the law of this state. The
board need not require separate registration under this article
for practitioners engaging in research with nonnarcotic
controlled substances in Schedules II through V where the
registrant is already registered under this article in another
capacity. Practitioners registered under federal law to conduct
research with Schedule I substances may conduct research with
Schedule I substances within this state upon furnishing the
board evidence of that federal registration. The board shall
enroll any practitioner registered under this subsection in the
controlled substance prescription tracking program maintained by
the board under W.S. 35-7-1060 if the practitioner is authorized
to dispense any controlled substances in Schedules II through V.
The board may promulgate rules and regulations for purposes of
enrolling those practitioners in the tracking program.
(d) Compliance by manufacturers and distributors with the
provisions of the federal law respecting registration (excluding
fees) entitles them to be registered under this act.
