A prescription for which of the following drugs can be sent to the pharmacy by telephone?

an anabolic steroid
cannabis
meperidine
morphine

The correct answer is: an anabolic steroid

A prescription for an anabolic steroid can be sent to the pharmacy by telephone because anabolic steroids are not considered controlled substances under the Controlled Substances Act. On the other hand, cannabis, meperidine, and morphine are classified as controlled substances, which have more restrictions and regulations around how prescriptions are written and transmitted to pharmacies. This makes option A the correct choice for a drug that can be sent to the pharmacy by telephone.
