Dispensing Drugs (Preliminary Consultation) (CLOSED)

Tell us what you think:

We want you to help us update our current Dispensing Drugs policy to determine whether guidance is current for physicians who dispense drugs and whether additional guidance is needed.

This policy is based on the general premise that physicians should meet the same standards for dispensing as pharmacists and sets out CPSO’s expectations around the procurement, storage, record keeping, packing, labelling, and disposal of drugs.

We’re reviewing this policy to make sure it sets the right expectations and provides helpful guidance to physicians and we want you to help inform what changes we make.

View the current policy.

 Provide your feedback through our online survey.

Post your comments on our online discussion page.

Have your say:

We want to hear your thoughts on the current policy. For example, we’re interested to know:

• Does the current policy provide useful guidance to physicians?
• Are the expectations set out in the current policy clear and reasonable?
• Are there issues not addressed in the current policy that should be?

Or please answer the specific questions we have in our online survey regarding the current policy content (click here to download the PDF list of questions).

Please provide your feedback by October 22, 2021.

Next Steps:

Your feedback is important to us. Your comments will be carefully reviewed and used to help us evaluate the current Dispensing Drugs policy. CPSO Council will ultimately determine what policy revisions will be made when finalizing and approving the policy.

Thank you for participating!
