All pharmacies with few exceptions must submit their controlled substance reporting transactions into the database.

Exemptions/Waivers

Inpatient dispensing transactions do not need to be reported. If your pharmacy is exempt, please complete and return the following form to the Board:  

Pharmacies which dispense controlled substances solely for Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved interventional research trials using investigational drug products that are regulated by the Federal Food and Drug Administration may request a waiver.

Pharmacies that are not computerized may request a waiver. If you wish to apply for a waiver, please complete and return the following form to the Board:
