When can a registration transfer occur with the DEA/CSA?

At any time with verbal consent
Only with written DEA/DHEC consent
Automatically on a set schedule
When requested by the pharmacy owner

The correct answer is: Only with written DEA/DHEC consent

A registration transfer involving the DEA or the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) requires explicit written consent, making it essential for the involved parties to adhere to the regulatory framework governing the transfer of pharmacy registrations. This requirement helps ensure that the transfer is officially recognized, thereby providing a clear record of the new ownership and maintaining compliance with laws that regulate controlled substances. Without this written consent, any attempt to transfer a registration could lead to complications, such as legal penalties or issues with the continuity of access to controlled substances. The registration transfer process is designed to maintain the integrity and accountability of pharmacies handling medications categorized as controlled substances. Thus, adherence to the requirement for written consent from the DEA or the appropriate state agency is critical to safeguarding public health and regulatory compliance.
