New Prescribing Rules

Can you beleive this. This happened overnight. I went to my pain med Dr. and he said the DEA has set news rules in place. I was getting 120 oxycodone plus the Fentanyl Patch. I was getting 10's. New rules state you can only give 7.5 mg and only 90 per month. He said if you prescribe 10's for 4 times a day it's now a red flag and could possibly be audited by the DEA. NY state really sucks I would rather take medical marijuana for pain, but NY state makes it so hard for you. Anyone else experience this. This happened yesterday.

May be Not true, must be a NY thing or your Dr. is lying to you. I just had my PM appointment a few days ago & got 6 per day Oxy 10's prescribbed ( my norm ) no issues. Wouldnt put it past NY, Obama admin & the Dems are really cracking down via the CDC ( chk google news stories to confirm ) My PM told me the CDC is really really cracking down for Opiod prescriptions now.
