Bill Summary
Amends the Illinois Controlled Substances Act. Provides that, notwithstanding the provisions of the Act that physicians may issue multiple prescriptions (3 sequential 30-day supplies) for the same Schedule II controlled substance, authorizing up to a 90-day supply, provides that prescriptions for non-opioid, non-narcotic controlled substances found in Schedule II, where a 90-day supply, but in no event more than a 90-day supply, may be dispensed at any one time.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Illinois Controlled Substances Act to allow physicians to dispense up to a 90-day supply of certain non-opioid, non-narcotic controlled substances found in Schedule II at any one time, whereas current law generally limits Schedule II controlled substances to a 30-day supply, with exceptions for multiple prescriptions totaling up to 90 days for opioid-based Schedule II substances under specific conditions. Schedule II refers to a category of drugs with a high potential for abuse, which may lead to severe psychological or physical dependence, and the bill clarifies that for these specific non-opioid, non-narcotic drugs within Schedule II, a 90-day supply can be dispensed at once.
