or Dangerous Drugs or Both

This application cannot be returned by fax or email.

This application is for dispensing of medications from your office. Example: You will write a prescription and

then fill the prescription like a pharmacy does. If all you do is prescribe, please use the controlled substance

application. Dangerous drugs require a prescription (Latisse, high blood pressure medication, antibiotics, etc.)

but are not a scheduled drug.

If you dispense controlled substances, a controlled substance registration and DEA is required for the address

listed on the application.

Download application and mail to the address on the top of the application with the required $300.00 fee. The

fee is payable by money order or cashier s check only, we do not accept personal or business checks, cash or

credit cards. If the application is received with a personal check or cash, it will be returned and will delay the

processing of your application.

Fee is made payable to: Nevada State Board of Pharmacy

Before calling with questions, please read all information carefully.

Your dispensing site will require an inspection by Board of Pharmacy personnel before the dispensing

certificate can be issued or the dispensing of medications can occur from your office. Once the completed

application and fee has been received by the Reno office, you will receive a letter to schedule the appointment

to have your dispensing site inspected.

Dispensing practitioners who only dispense dangerous drugs are exempt from the reporting

requirements.

As of January 1, 2005, all dispensing practitioners who dispense controlled substances must comply

with the following:

Have a computer system into which all controlled substance prescriptions or prescription data is

entered that are dispensed by the dispensing practitioner. (No more paper-only prescription record

systems for controlled substances.)

Begin transmitting the data to the Controlled Substance Task Force on a weekly basis.

You must be the only person who prepares prescriptions for dispensing unless you designate an employee or

employees to serve as a dispensing technician. Please see Licensing Application tab on the home page for

the application for a dispensing technician in training. A minimum of 500 hours is required to a dispensing

technician in training.

If your dispensing address changes, you will be required to submit a new application before moving and pay

the $300.00. The new location will require an inspection.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Reno office.
