Giải thích

A prescription for a controlled substance must carry the required elements, including the prescriber's DEA number, before it can be dispensed. A technician may not supply, guess, or reconstruct a missing element; the correct action is to route the prescription to the pharmacist, who resolves it with the prescriber. Using the check-digit formula only tests whether a number is plausible and cannot create a valid one.
