dispensing a controlled substance to a patient, a licensed
prescriber shall obtain a report concerning that patient from the

administered on the order of a licensed prescriber by an individual
who is licensed under article 15 as a practical nurse or a
registered professional nurse.
(b) When methadone or a methadone congener is dispensed on the
order of a licensed prescriber in a methadone treatment program
