I'm prescribed 120 tablets of oxycodone every month for chronic pain. I just got a full knee replacement. He then wrote me 180 pills for this month. Is that legal?

Hello, Leonard! How are you?

Yes, they can prescribe more under certain circumstances and its perfectly legal. Generally, they just prescribe more for a short period of time and not as an ongoing thing.

The FDA classifies this medication as being a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
