What animal patient dispensations are reportable?


Read time: 6 minutes

Licensed dispensing veterinarians, veterinarian facilities and pharmacies, are exempt from the reporting requirement for the dispensation of insulin drugs, glucagon drugs, diabetes devices, and diabetic ketoacidosis devices for animal patients. Controlled substances, gabapentin and naloxone remain reportable for all dispensers.

Meeting ALL or ANY of the following conditions requires the a veterinarian who dispenses medication to submit dispensation data to the PMP Clearinghouse:

  • Dispensed Schedule II-V controlled substances with a prescription supply that is greater than a 72-hour supply.
  • Gabapentin.
  • Naloxone.

All dispensers who do not dispense reportable drugs or medical devices must still ZERO REPORT through their active PMP Clearinghouse account. Modes of auto-reporting can be established in the account.

Dispensers are encouraged to visit Pharmacist & Dispensing Prescribers Information to learn more about dispensation reporting requirements, dispensing activities exemptions and dispensing reporting waivers.
