Board
of Pharmacy Rule Changes Effective as of September 13, 2011
10/12/2011
State laws regulating the practice of pharmacy in Minnesota fall into two categories, statutes and rules.
Statutes are laws which have been enacted by a vote of the legislature. Any modifications made to a statute also requires the approval of the legislature. The Minnesota Board of Pharmacy has the responsibility for implementing and regulating Chapter 151 and Chapter 152 of the Minnesota Statutes. (order form for Pharmacy Laws)
Rules, on the other hand, are written by the Board of Pharmacy. Rules are required to be supported by a statute. Rules typically are less general and more specific to a particular situation. All Minnesota pharmacy rules are found in Chapter 6800. (order form for chapter 6800)
In addition to Minnesota statutes and rules federal regulations affect the practice of pharmacy with respect to controlled substances. These regulations can be found in Title 21 - Food and Drugs, Part 1300 to END of the Code of Federal Regulations. Part 1300 to END, includes Chapter II - Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice and Chapter III - Office of National Drug Control Policy. The Consumer Product Safety Commission administers the Poison Prevention Packaging Act of 1970.
