Under which circumstance must a pharmacy obtain identification from a purchaser when selling poisonous substances like potassium cyanide?

  1. If the quantity is above a certain amount

  2. If the purchaser appears suspicious

  3. If the person is not known to the seller

  4. Always, without exception

The correct answer is: If the person is not known to the seller

A pharmacy is not required to obtain identification from a purchaser when selling poisonous substances like potassium cyanide based on the quantity or appearance of the purchaser. The only circumstance in which a pharmacy must obtain identification is if the person is not known to the seller, meaning they have not previously purchased from the pharmacy. In this case, identification is needed in order to verify the purchaser's age and identity in order to ensure they are legally allowed to purchase the substance. Option D is incorrect because there may be instances where the purchaser is known to the seller and therefore identification is not necessary. Option A and B are also incorrect because they do not accurately describe when identification is required for the purchase of poisonous substances.
