To which authorities must a loss of a controlled substance be reported?

  1. DEA, DPS, Board of Pharmacy

  2. FDA, DEA, Board of Pharmacy

  3. DPS, FDA, DEA

  4. Board of Pharmacy, FDA, CDC

The correct answer is: DEA, DPS, Board of Pharmacy

In the context of reporting a loss of a controlled substance, it is essential to notify the correct authorities to ensure proper investigation and compliance with regulations. The correct answer includes the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration), which is the federal agency responsible for enforcing the controlled substances laws and regulations. The Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS) is also involved in the enforcement of drug laws at the state level, making it necessary to report the loss to them. Finally, the Board of Pharmacy oversees the regulation of pharmacy practice within the state and would need to be informed of any significant incidents involving controlled substances. By reporting to all three authorities, the pharmacy ensures that it meets legal obligations, maintains accountability, and helps prevent potential misuse or diversion of the controlled substances. This comprehensive reporting protocol emphasizes a coordinated effort between federal and state authorities to maintain public safety and the integrity of the pharmacy profession.
