18VAC150-190: Requirements for drug storage, dispensing,
 

This comment may only apply to our facility as a teaching hospital.  I request that the line 

Those amendments include (i) clarification that only the veterinarian or licensed veterinary technician has access to Schedule II through V drugs;  could be changed to  (i) clarification that only the veterinarian, licensed veterinary technician, or other licensed medical professionals has access to Schedule II through V drugs;  We employ licensed pharmacists and pharmacy technicians and would appreciate them having access to II through V drugs.   If this is already inferred in the proposed change, then the revision is not needed.
