I'm just curious.....in the retail/chain setting, who gets discretion for determining whether a Form 106 should be filled out? The pharmacist, or the DM/General Office? Just something I've been wondering...reviewing DEA law the DEA "registrant" is responsible for reporting, and individually pharmacists do not register with the DEA.

Just a technicality I've always wondered. Thanks.

I think some of the higher ups do it.

According to my DM, the pharmacists aren't allowed to fill out a DEA 106 without notifying our DM first. The DM will notify corporate and they will determine if a 106 is required.
