Section 44:58:07:04 - Acquisition, dispensing, and distribution records

A dispenser shall maintain the records required to acquire, distribute, or dispense controlled substances in a readily retrievable manner. The following minimum standards shall be met:

(1) Acquisition of Schedule I and II substances will be verified through official order forms of the DEA;

(2) Acquisition of Schedule III and IV substances will be verified through invoices or other records;

(3) Dispensing of all controlled substances will be verified through prescriptions or other chronological records as follows:

(a) The records shall include the name and address of the patient (or species and name and address of the owner if the patient is an animal), the date, the controlled substance and dose, the quantity dispensed, and the name, address, and DEA number of the prescriber;

(b) A separate file shall be maintained for dispensed substances listed in Schedule II;

(c) Schedule III and IV records may be maintained in a separate file or marked with a red "C" at least one inch high and filed with the prescriptions for noncontrolled drugs. If the pharmacy uses an automated data processing system or electronic record keeping system for prescriptions which permits identification by prescription number and retrieval of original documents by prescriber's name, patient's name, controlled substance dispensed, and date filled, then the requirement to mark the hard copy prescription with a red "C" is waived; and

(4) Distribution of controlled substances to another registrant as provided under subdivision 44:58:02:21(1) shall be as follows:

(a) Distribution of Schedule I and II substances will be verified by the supplier's copy of the official DEA order form; and

(b) Distribution of Schedule III and IV substances will be verified by invoices.
