Medical Gas Dispenser

A facility with a medical gas dispenser registration can only dispense legend medical gas to patients by prescription. A facility that holds a medical gas manufacturer or wholesaler license can dispense medical gases to patients without needing a separate medical gas dispenser registration.

Renewal Applications and Instructions

License renewal payments are due November 1 of each year, and licenses expire November 30 of each year.

The Board of Pharmacy recently migrated to an online licensing/registration platform. Visit our Online Services site for more information.
Additional guidance and tips sheets are found on our License/Registration page.

All fees are non-refundable.
