Ohio Pharmacy Law Practice Test

Which of the following statements is true regarding TDDD licenses?

1. It allows for the sale of medical oxygen to any individual

2. Each physical location storing oxygen must have its own license

3. They are required only for bulk sales of oxygen

4. Obtaining one license suffices for all locations

The correct answer is: Each physical location storing oxygen must have its own license

The statement that each physical location storing oxygen must have its own license is correct regarding TDDD (Terminal Distributor of Dangerous Drugs) licenses. In Ohio, if a facility stores and dispenses medical oxygen, it must obtain a TDDD license specific to that location. This requirement ensures that all sites handling potentially dangerous substances, including medical gases, are compliant with regulatory standards designed for safety and accountability. Each separate physical site is considered distinct in terms of licensing to ensure that proper control measures and inspections can be implemented. Other options suggest different interpretations of the licensing requirements. The notion that a single license suffices for multiple locations contradicts the regulatory framework which aims for specificity in managing various dispensing locations. Similarly, limiting the requirement to bulk sales does not acknowledge that any distribution involves adherence to safety standards, not just large quantities. Lastly, stating that the license allows for the sale of medical oxygen to any individual overlooks the need for controlled distribution practices governed by medical oversight.
