DEA requires pharmacies to maintain accurate records and conduct periodic audits of all controlled substances. This checklist provides a structured audit framework covering perpetual inventory reconciliation for Schedule II through V substances, security controls, recordkeeping verification, and discrepancy investigation procedures.

Biennial inventories are legally required, but more frequent audits (monthly or quarterly) are best practice for catching discrepancies early. Completed audit forms document compliance and provide evidence of due diligence during DEA inspections and state board reviews.
