What is the purchase limit for PSE?

  1. No more than 2 packages or 6 grams, whichever is smaller

  2. No more than 3 packages or 6 grams, whichever is smaller

  3. No more than 3 packages or 9 grams, whichever is smaller

  4. No more than 4 packages or 12 grams, whichever is smaller

The correct answer is: No more than 3 packages or 9 grams, whichever is smaller

The purchase limit for PSE stands for pseudoephedrine, a common ingredient found in over-the-counter cold and allergy medications. It is a controlled substance and therefore has a purchase limit to prevent potential misuse or abuse. The limit of 3 packages or 9 grams, whichever is smaller, is set by the federal law and enforced by pharmacies. Option A and B are incorrect because they have a lower limit of 2 packages and 3 packages, respectively. Option D is also incorrect because it has a higher limit of 4 packages and 12 grams. The correct answer of 3 packages or 9 grams, whichever is smaller, strikes a balance between accessibility for those in need of the medication and limiting the potential for abuse.
