Who is authorized to seize a dangerous drug that is manufactured, sold, or possessed in violation of this chapter?

• A. An employee of the board
• B. A Pharmacist
• C. The owner
• D. A Security guard

Answer: (A)

The important idea here is who has official power to intervene when a dangerous drug is not handled lawfully. The statute assigns seizure authority to regulators, specifically an employee of the board. This means only someone acting in an official enforcement capacity from the board can take possession of the drug to stop its distribution, protect evidence, and begin appropriate enforcement steps. A pharmacist, owner, or security guard does not have that explicit legal power to seize under this chapter, even though they may report violations or take other actions within their roles. Therefore, the person authorized to seize is an employee of the board.
