What is the minimum amount of atropine required per dosage unit in a Schedule 5 medication containing diphenoxin?

  1. 10 mcg

  2. 15 mcg

  3. 20 mcg

  4. 25 mcg

The correct answer is: 25 mcg

In Wisconsin, a Schedule 5 medication containing diphenoxin must have a minimum amount of atropine of 25 mcg per dosage unit. This requirement ensures that the medication contains enough atropine to deter misuse or abuse of the diphenoxin component, which is an opioid used to treat diarrhea. By setting this standard, Wisconsin aims to protect public health and safety.
