The senior constable, who is based in the Western Region, was charged on March 4, two weeks after officers raided his home.
The Professional Standards Command - the squad of officers who investigates NSW Police officers - launched an investigation in February after a report about the possession of restricted substances.
Investigations led the squad to the senior constable's home on February 17, where it was raided.
During the search, police claim they found prescription medication, and allege they uncovered breaches relating to the securing and disposal of registered guns.
On Tuesday, NSW Police confirmed the officer's employment "remains under review pending the court matter".
