Frequently Asked Questions
What is a CDS license?
A Controlled Dangerous Substances (CDS) license is a state-issued authorization that permits healthcare workers to suggest, sell, or dispense restricted substances in that state. With a federal DEA registration, you may handle narcotics that are illegal in some states. However, certain states need a supplementary CDS registration. States may make their own laws for control, prescription limits, and reporting on top of the federal standards using this dual-authorization technique. In fact, most physicians require both to dispense controlled pharmaceuticals safely. Different states have varying regulations regarding controlled dangerous substances (CDS). Some jurisdictions need a separate registration, while others include controlled drug power in a medical license.
