It's still hard for me to believe that this is how pharmaceuticals are secured.

Pharmacist: "Should we dispense this potentially dangerous drug, it's a large quantity?"

Other Pharmacist: "Of course, look at the paper, it has the correct letterhead!"

It's basically like doctors sit around with a stack full of signed blank checks in their offices, and every once in a while someone steals one and makes a huge withdrawal.

There are quite a few special requirements that need to be met for narcotics to be dispensed. Can they be ignored? Yup! Also, there should be some numbers run first and in many states an online check is required as well.
