Controlled substances CE
The following webinars are available to watch at any time:
DRUG-SEEKING CLIENTS: RECOGNIZE AND PREVENT This webinar covers the signs that can help veterinary staff members identify potentially concerning client behavior. Viewers also learn about prescribing and dispensing regulations and ways to help prevent diversion.
OPIOIDS AND DRUG DIVERSION: VETERINARY TRENDS Securing controlled substances at a practice is an important part of preventing drug diversion. Practitioners learn about opioid epidemic trends and some of the regulatory attempts that have been made to address drug diversion within practices.
DRUG DIVERSION REGULATIONS AND COMPLIANCE Veterinary practices must comply with controlled substance regulations. This webinar teaches veterinary health care providers how to create a legally compliant process for controlled substance record keeping. It also explains what a prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) is and identify potential pitfalls of the system.
Approximately 18 states have requirements for veterinarians to participate in PDMP programs, however, a few of those states have exemptions under certain circumstances. States also vary in which substances must be reported, the frequency in reporting, and whether the veterinarian has to search the database prior to prescribing.
A version of this story appears in the August 2023 print issue of JAVMA.
