24June Night dancer I understand a new requirement for narcotics (only a week )is being written up at a time.I did not see this personally but my close friend who follows the news avidly mentioned it to me.I must say it is not going to be convenient for many patients as it has to be obtained at the office in person.

I keep track of this VERY closely and that is just not true. Ask your friend to give you a reference, and tell me where she saw this. It is 28 days for the Schedule 1 and II meds for federal, and it can differ from state to state. IF your friend is saying every week, it would have to be an individual or group of doctors. I really doubt this, it is not the law,. I know that much.

Not what you're looking for?
