Disclaimer
Vet Compliance HQ provides educational and informational resources to help U.S. veterinary practices understand and organize their controlled-substance compliance obligations. Please read this disclaimer carefully.
Not legal advice
The materials, templates, checklists, articles, and products provided by Vet Compliance HQ are for general educational and informational purposes only. They do not constitute legal, regulatory, or professional advice, and they are not a substitute for advice from a qualified attorney or compliance professional familiar with your specific circumstances. Using our materials or this website does not create an attorney–client or consultant–client relationship.
Compliance remains your responsibility
Responsibility for complying with the Controlled Substances Act, DEA regulations (21 CFR), and all applicable state laws rests with the registrant and the practice. Our materials are tools to help you organize and document your compliance program — they do not, by themselves, make a practice compliant, and they do not guarantee any particular outcome in a DEA inspection or other regulatory review.
Verify current requirements
Federal and state requirements change and vary by state. Always verify current requirements with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, your state veterinary board, your state board of pharmacy, and qualified counsel before relying on any material.
No affiliation
Vet Compliance HQ is an independent provider. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, the American Animal Hospital Association, or any government agency or accrediting body. References to these organizations and to specific regulations are for educational purposes only.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Vet Compliance HQ disclaims all warranties, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness, or fitness for a particular purpose of its materials, and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from reliance on them.
