AI Summary
This bill amends the Pharmacy Practice Act and the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. The key provisions are:
1. Pharmacists shall dispense opioid antagonists (such as naloxone) in accordance with standardized procedures developed by the Department, and must inform patients that opioids are addictive and offer to dispense an opioid antagonist.
2. Prescribers who issue an opioid prescription must inform the patient that opioids are addictive and that opioid antagonists are available by prescription or from a pharmacy.
3. The bill maintains existing requirements for dispensing controlled substances, including prescriptions for Schedule II-V drugs, with some modifications such as allowing physicians to issue multiple 30-day prescriptions for a 90-day supply of Schedule II narcotics under certain conditions.
