The State of Ohio Board of Pharmacy proposes to amend Administrative Code 4729:5-3-01 (destruction of controlled substances by a terminal distributor of dangerous drugs) to extend the destruction date of dangerous drugs by a long-term care facility from five to ten days. The rule is being amended after concerns were raised by impacted stakeholders who complained of the regulatory burden that was created by the five-day requirement.
