(1) The trainer of record shall be responsible for insuring that all legend drugs, proprietary drugs, or medicinal compounds (natural or synthetic) of any nature are kept or stored at all times in a securely locked cabinet, locker, or room when not actively being administered.
    (2) Any legend drug, which is used or kept on the grounds of a permitholder and which, by federal or state law, requires a prescription and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) number, must be validly prescribed by a duly licensed veterinarian in good standing in their state of licensure, who has established a current veterinarian-patient relationship with said animal and in compliance with Section 474.214(1)(y), F.S. All legend drugs, must have a label which is securely attached to the container and complies with the requirements of Chapters 465, 474 and 499, F.S. When the medication container is such that a label cannot be affixed thereto, the label must be affixed to the original packing container or bag. Such labeling will be presumed to imply that a veterinarian-patient relationship exists that can be verified through the veterinarian’s records.
    (3) Any person receiving a legend drug, proprietary drug, or medicinal compound (natural or synthetic) shall be responsible for ensuring that a label is on said medication. Dispensing veterinarians shall be responsible for the proper labeling of all legend drugs, proprietary drugs, or medicinal compounds (natural or synthetic) they dispense.
