Yeah this is rather blatant topic hijacking because statins aren't scheduled under the Controlled Substances Act. The OTC vs prescription question for statins doesn't involve the DEA at all.
- WarOnPrivacy 1y agoYou are correct. I am being poor steward of online etiquette. I will do somewhat better in the future.
- AStonesThrow 1y agoActually the D.E.A. is directly involved in all prescriptions and prescriber activities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_Enforcement_Administration#Registration_and_licensing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drug_Enforcement_Administratio... Every US prescriber such as a physician or NP must be registered with the DEA and obtain a registration number. This number is provided on all their prescription pads, and it's a number required by the [also DEA-registered] pharmacy to authenticate all prescription requests, controlled substance or not.
