DEA Registration Revoked for Dr. Enright

Renewal and New Registration Applications Denied

State License Required to Keep DEA Registration
The DEA stated that a practitioner must have state authority to dispense controlled substances to obtain or keep a DEA registration, and that revocation is appropriate when a practitioner's state license is suspended, revoked, or expired. The agency applied that rule to Dr. Enright because his Maine license had expired.
