| Abstract | Multiple Prescriptions: The federal rule allows a practitioner to provide a patient with multiple prescriptions on the same day for the same Schedule II controlled substance (CS) to be filled sequentially. There is no federal or state limit on the amount a prescriber can prescribe, but when a prescriber issues multiple prescriptions of the same drug on the same day, the combined amount shall not exceed a 90-day supply. It is up to the prescriber to determine how many separate prescriptions to write. For example, a prescriber may issue three 30-day Schedule II prescriptions to cover the 90 days, or he or she may issue nine 10-day Schedule II prescriptions to cover the 90 days. Each prescription must be individually written on a separate prescription. Once the prescription is filled, the inspector would expect to find either three separate canceled prescriptions or nine canceled prescriptions. |
