These regulations are considered to be a general but minimal required control level in the opinion of the Bureau of Drug Control, DHEC. More stringent control for the institution in question or special interpretations of these regulations may be approved by a special meeting with the Bureau of Drug Control, and the administrator or designated pharmacy and therapeutics committee of the respective hospital every 3 to 5 years when the need is felt for such clarification. The intent of Part 1900 of this regulation is to insure adequate control and accountability of controlled substances utilized in health care without duly hindering or restraining the delivery of such care. Accountability and an accurate audit at periodic intervals are the crux of the adequate control system.
