Drug Enforcement Administration
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is a U.S. federal agency responsible for enforcing the controlled substances laws and regulations. Its mission is to combat drug trafficking, abuse, and illicit drug distribution, while ensuring that legal medical and scientific use of controlled substances is properly regulated. The DEA works to prevent drug-related crimes, monitor the manufacturing and distribution of prescription drugs, and provide resources for drug enforcement at local, national, and international levels. It plays a critical role in safeguarding public health and safety by controlling the availability of potentially harmful substances.
CONTROLLED DRUGS USED IN RESEARCH WILL NOT BE PROVIDED BY THE ACHE BRC. EACH PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR OBTAINING THEIR OWN DEA LICENSE AND PROPER TRACKING OF USE.
