Amendment RA 9165 updated which act?

• A. RA 6425
• B. RA 5527
• C. RA 8504
• D. RA 10767

Answer: (A)

The main idea is how the system of regulating medicines was updated to fit the new controls on dangerous drugs. RA 9165, the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002, expanded how dangerous drugs and their precursors are regulated and enforced, creating stronger oversight and new agencies like the Dangerous Drugs Board and PDEA. To ensure this tougher regime could be applied in everyday pharmacy practice, the Pharmacy Act (RA 6425) was amended so dispensing, registration, prescription, and record-keeping of controlled substances met the new standards. In short, RA 9165 updated the Pharmacy Act to unify pharmaceutical practice with the strengthened drug-control framework. The other acts listed were not amended by RA 9165.
