CII HERO is desktop software built by a pharmacist to track Schedule II controlled substance inventory — with compliance confidence, not compliance anxiety.
One app replaces your paper binders, spreadsheets, and the nagging feeling that your records won't hold up.
Track every dispense, receipt, return, correction, and destruction. Running balance updates in real time.
SHA-256 hash chain links every record. If anyone alters a record, the chain breaks — and the app detects it.
TIER 1/2/3 classification based on variance percentage. Thefts and losses auto-route to escalation workflows.
Corrections, destructions, and discrepancies require a second set of eyes — with digital co-signatures.
Generate detailed supporting documentation for DEA Form 106 filings and destruction events — pre-filled from your transaction data.
Schedule and track biannual inventories and routine cycle counts. Overdue items flagged automatically.
5-point checklist for every C-II receipt. CSOS/222 verification enforced. Quantity mismatches caught immediately.
Current inventory, perpetual log, discrepancy history, destruction events — exportable to HTML, PDF, and CSV.
Pending corrections, open discrepancies, board notifications, and investigation timelines — all in one view.
Download and install on any Windows 10/11 PC. No server, no cloud account needed.
Enter your pharmacy info, create user accounts, and run the onboarding wizard to enter starting balances.
Log dispenses, receipts, and counts as they happen. The app handles compliance logic automatically.
Generate any report in seconds. Your tamper-evident records are always ready for the board or the DEA.
CII HERO was created by a pharmacist with years of independent pharmacy experience — the same paper binders, handwritten counts, and "I hope this holds up in an audit" anxiety that you deal with every day. This isn't enterprise software designed by people who've never stood behind the counter. It's built from real pharmacy workflows — because the person who built it lives them.
No sales demo required. No setup fees. No long-term contracts.
