Dispensing Practitioner Information

"Dispensing" is defined as the transfer of possession of medicinal drugs from a physician to a patient in the office. A practitioner who writes prescriptions or provides medicinal drugs labeled as drug sample or complimentary drug is not a dispensing practitioner, and therefore does not need to register with the department.
