(a) All prescriptions for controlled substances shall be dated as of, and signed on, the day when issued and shall bear the full name and address of the patient, the drug name, strength, dosage form, quantity prescribed, directions for use and the name, address, and registration number of the practitioner" (21 CFR, Section 1306.05).
Federal Opioid Prescribing Laws

…. the prescribing practitioner is responsible in case the prescription does not conform in all essential respects to the law and regulations. A corresponding liability rests upon the pharmacist, including a pharmacist employed by a central fill pharmacy, who fills a prescription not prepared in the form prescribed by DEA regulations" (21 CFR 1306.05).
03
The Narcotic Addiction Treatment Act of 1974 and the Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 amended the CSA with respect to the use of controlled substances in the medical treatment of addiction. Practitioners wishing to administer and dispense approved Schedule II controlled substances (that is, methadone) for maintenance and detoxification treatment must obtain a separate DEA registration as a Narcotic Treatment Program.

Federal Opioid Prescribing LawsControlledSubstancesAct(CSA),21USC801-890
DEAregulations,Title21,CodeofFederalRegulations(CFR),Parts1300to1316
Federal law does not prohibit prescribing, dispensing, or treating a narcotic addicted patient with controlled substances as long as the purpose is for alleviating pain and not treatment of addiction.
The DEA does not limit a physician from treating (NOT prescribing) a patient with controlled substances in a hospital for maintenance or detoxification as an incidental adjunct to other treatments.
05
06 Treatment of addiction requires licensure to dispense controlled substances for this purpose (Office of National Drug Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 2006): up to 100 patients at a time.
