We have not had this happen and our reverse distributor was just here in the last week. I find it curious since the reverse distributor must give a DEA form 222 for schedule 2 medications. If I were the reverse distributor, I would want to count those myself to put on the form as well as having the buyer count them. There seems to be a disconnect with this process that the reverse distributor has in place.

I just emailed my reverse distributor and he replied that they are not doing anything like that. His company will continue to process ALL outdates.

I have no problems here in Missouri with my reverse distributor taking the controlled substances. He inventories everything, then I compare his report with my report from the pyxis C-II safe and it always matches up. This process has worked great.

Our reverse distributor was here a few weeks ago and didn't mention any issues with processing controlled medications. I will keep my ear out for anything. Thanks!
