Published Date: 7/22/2025

Notice

Summary

Dr. Thomas Draschil from Utah lost his DEA registration because he gave up his state medical and controlled substance licenses last year. Since he didn’t ask for a hearing, the DEA officially canceled his right to handle controlled substances starting July 22, 2025. This means he can no longer legally prescribe or manage controlled drugs, affecting his medical practice and any related income.

DEA Registration Revoked for Dr. Draschil

Dr. Thomas Draschil's DEA Certificate of Registration No. FD9980118 is revoked and the Order is effective August 21, 2025. Because his Utah physician license and Utah controlled-substance license were voluntarily surrendered on July 29, 2024, he is not authorized to handle, prescribe, dispense, or administer controlled substances in Utah.

Pending Renewal and New Registrations Denied

The DEA denied any pending applications by Thomas Draschil to renew or modify his registration and denied any pending application for additional registration in Utah, with that denial effective August 21, 2025. The Order follows findings that he is not licensed as a practitioner in Utah.
