True or False: Inventory stored in a warehouse on behalf of the registrant is considered on hand?

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only if licensed

  4. Dependent on warehouse type

The correct answer is: True

The statement is true because in the context of pharmacy regulations, any drugs or medications that are physically located in a warehouse under the control of a registrant are considered on hand inventory. The term "on hand" typically refers to all inventory that is available for use or distribution, and this includes items stored in a warehouse as long as they are associated with a licensed pharmacy or registrant. Having inventory in a warehouse signifies that it is accessible to the pharmacy when needed, reinforcing the notion that it is part of the overall inventory maintained by the pharmacy. This consideration helps ensure that registrants maintain accurate records of their inventory for compliance purposes. The other options suggest conditions or nuances that do not apply in this case, since the mere act of storage within a warehouse on behalf of a registrant is sufficient for that inventory to be categorized as on hand, irrespective of licensing, warehouse type, or other factors.
