    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) issued an order to revoke the registration of Dr. Ajumobi Agu in Nevada due to violations of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). Dr. Agu continued prescribing controlled substances even after his state medical and controlled substances licenses were suspended. The DEA concluded that his actions are inconsistent with the public interest and deemed him untrustworthy to handle such substances. As such, Dr. Agu will be unable to apply to renew or modify his DEA registration, effective May 16, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    Dr. Ajumobi Agu is not allowed to give out certain medicines anymore because he kept giving them even after he wasn't supposed to. The people in charge decided they couldn't trust him to handle these medicines safely.

    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has revoked the DEA Certificate of Registration for Dr. Shiva Akula after finding that he is not authorized to handle controlled substances in Louisiana, as his medical license is suspended and his controlled substances license is lapsed. The decision follows a Motion for Summary Disposition by the DEA, which Dr. Akula did not respond to, and a recommendation from the Administrative Law Judge supporting the revocation. Consequently, Dr. Akula is also denied any pending applications to renew or modify the registration. This decision was signed by DEA Administrator Anne Milgram and will take effect on January 29, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The government took away Dr. Shiva Akula's special permission to give out certain medicines because he lost his permission to practice medicine in Louisiana, and he didn't try to stop them or explain why he should still have it.

    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) decided to revoke the DEA Certificate of Registration for Dr. Willard J. Davis, a doctor in Texas, because he lost his state license to practice medicine, which means he can no longer handle controlled substances legally in Texas. The Texas Medical Board suspended Dr. Davis's medical license on May 16, 2024, and it remained suspended at the time of the decision. Since having a valid state medical license is necessary to maintain DEA registration for dispensing controlled substances, his registration was revoked, and any pending applications related to the registration were denied. This decision will be effective starting April 28, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    Dr. Willard J. Davis can't be a doctor anymore because his permission to practice medicine was taken away, so he's not allowed to give out special medicine drugs anymore either.
