What must pharmacies maintain for two years?

  1. Initial inventory

  2. Biennial inventory records

  3. DEA Registration Certificate

  4. Prescription logs

The correct answer is: Biennial inventory records

Pharmacies are required to maintain biennial inventory records for two years. These records must include information about the controlled substances in the pharmacy's possession, such as the date of receipt, name of the supplier, amount received, and date of disposal. Keeping an initial inventory or prescription logs are also important record-keeping practices, but they do not specifically pertain to the biennial inventory requirement. Additionally, although a DEA Registration Certificate is necessary for a pharmacy to legally possess and dispense controlled substances, it does not need to be maintained for two years.
