Records of destruction of controlled drugs must be kept for at least how many years?

Records of destruction of controlled drugs must be kept for at least 2 years to comply with Saskatchewan Pharmacy Law and regulations governing controlled substances. This requirement ensures that pharmacists and pharmacies maintain accurate records of the disposal of these medications, which is crucial for accountability and traceability in the management of controlled drugs. The 2-year period allows for sufficient time to conduct audits or investigations if necessary, which is essential for ensuring that pharmacies adhere to legal and regulatory standards in their operations. Maintaining these records helps to minimize the risk of diversion and misuse of controlled substances and demonstrates a commitment to public safety and regulatory compliance.
