Individual Professional Practice Document: Prescriptive Authority
Individual Professional Practice Document: Prescriptive Authority
After passing your certification exam, the next step is to obtain your Nurse Practitioner (RN/NP) license. Then you should apply for prescriptive authority in the state in which you plan to practice. In some states, this requires a collaborating/ supervising physician; in some states, there are restrictions for NP prescribing. After you obtain a state prescriptive license, you must apply for a federal drug enforcement administration (DEA) certificate so that you can prescribe controlled substances.
