Arizona MPJE (Pharmacy Jurisprudence) Practice Exam

The correct form used to report the theft or loss of controlled substances to the DEA is DEA Form-106. This form is specifically designated for documenting incidents of theft or significant loss, offering a standardized method for pharmacies and other registrants to notify the DEA about such occurrences.

When a pharmacy discovers that controlled substances are missing, it is crucial to complete DEA Form-106 promptly. This form requires detailed information about the incident, including the date of the loss, a description of the items lost, and circumstances surrounding the loss. Submitting this form enables the DEA to investigate the loss, which helps maintain accountability and track potential abuse or illegal activity.

In contrast, DEA Form-41 is used for the destruction of controlled substances, DEA Form-222 is used for ordering and transferring Schedule I and II controlled substances, and DEA Form-224 is an application for registration to dispense controlled substances. These forms serve different purposes and are not applicable to reporting theft or loss.
