(a) The pharmacist or employee under supervision must verify the identity of the person presenting a controlled substance prescription to the pharmacy for dispensing. This may be done by visual recognition. If identity is not established by visual recognition, a driver's license or similar photo identification form is acceptable documentation. The following information shall be recorded on the paper prescription, if identification is utilized: name, type of identification, and identification number.
(b) The name of the person receiving the dispensed drug is to be recorded on the prescription document, patient profile, or signature log, if an agent and not the patient receives the drug.
(c) This Section shall not apply to pharmacies that mail prescriptions to their patients. A note shall be entered on the prescription or patient's profile with the name and address of where the medication was mailed. Additionally, the date of such mailing shall be entered.
