Which color copy of the DEA 222 form is retained at the pharmacy?

When ordering Schedule II substances, the DEA Form 222 uses three color-coded copies to show where each part goes: the pharmacy (the purchaser) keeps the blue Copy 3, the supplier retains the brown Copy 1, and the green Copy 2 is sent to the DEA. The blue copy is the one kept by the pharmacy to document the purchase, so blue is the correct color to retain on file.
