Abstract
Forensic pharmacists play a critical role in the control and regulation of narcotics. Their involvement in the criminal justice system spans various functions, including the detection of drug misuse, the regulation of controlled substances, and providing expertise in the legal management of pharmaceutical drugs. Forensic pharmacists apply their knowledge of pharmaceuticals and clinical practices to ensure that drugs are used properly, monitor for abuse, and help establish protocols that safeguard public health. They are instrumental in identifying cases of drug trafficking, diversion, and fraud, while also supporting law enforcement agencies and legal professionals. This article explores the multifaceted role of forensic pharmacists in narcotics control and regulation, outlining their specific duties, the challenges they face, and the ongoing developments in the field.
