Thanks for the correction! There is a big difference between removing a roadblock to participation and becoming compliant with a mandated rule.<br>

or rules if DEA changes theirs. </span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif; color:#1F497D">But anyway, I don’t think the statement “became compliant with the DEA” regulations is correct because the DEA rule is permissive—it tells you how you must
collect and manage CS pharms <u>if</u> you choose to do it. A State’s Board of Pharmacy doesn’t have to allow pharmacies to collect CS pharms, it is just a very good idea for a Board to allow it as an option for effective management of waste CS.
