Are automated dispensing machines permissible in Wyoming pharmacies?

Automated dispensing machines are permissible in Wyoming pharmacies under certain conditions set forth by state regulations. This means that while pharmacies can utilize these machines to streamline the dispensing process, they must ensure compliance with the specific legal requirements established by the Wyoming Board of Pharmacy. This includes maintaining proper security, accountability for dispensed medications, and adequate record-keeping to ensure patient safety and regulatory compliance.

By allowing automated dispensing machines with the stipulation that they adhere to state regulations, Wyoming recognizes the potential advantages of these technologies, such as improving efficiency and reducing medication errors, while still safeguarding public health.
