Question

which of the following forms should a pharmacy technician complete when ordering and shipping controlled substances?
○ dea form 106
○ dea form 222
○ dea form 411
○ dea form 224

Explanation:

To determine the correct form for ordering and shipping controlled substances by a pharmacy technician, we analyze each option:

• DEA Form 106 is used for reporting theft or loss of controlled substances, not for ordering/shipping.
• DEA Form 222 is specifically used for the transfer of Schedule I and II controlled substances between registrants (like when a pharmacy orders or ships these substances).
• DEA Form 411 is for requesting a waiver of the prescription requirement for certain controlled substances in research, not for ordering/shipping.
• DEA Form 224 is for initial registration or reregistration of a DEA - registered location to handle controlled substances, not for ordering/shipping.

Answer:

B. DEA Form 222
