Which of the following medications is required to be inventoried on the effective date of the change listed?
  1. A previously non-controlled medication that is added to the federal controlled substance scheduling system
  2. A previously controlled medication that is removed from the federal controlled substance scheduling system
  3. A non-controlled medication that has been recalled
  4. A non-controlled medication that has outdated
Explanation
Answer: A - A previously non-controlled medication that is added to the federal controlled substance scheduling system must be inventoried on the effective date of the scheduling change. Since scheduled medications are drugs of abuse, it is important to perform an inventory of any medication that is added to the federal controlled substance list. Non-controlled medications do not have federal inventory requirements, but may need to be inventoried, at the discretion of the pharmacy owner.
