Drug Enforcement Administration License
Call the Drug Enforcement Administration to request an application to obtain a license to prescribe drugs. You need to request the Physician’s Manual that explains the rules and regulations because it is very important to know what the Drug Enforcement Administration requires of you when you prescribe drugs.
