Prescription Pad Regulations

August 3rd, 2011

We have had many questions from clients regarding the counterfeit proof prescription pads. Here is an article released by the State Surgeon General regarding a suspension on the requirement of these pads for 60 days.

STATE SURGEON GENERAL STATEMENT

Also here is a link to Frequently Asked Questions regarding these pads from the Florida Department of Health

Recently one of our preferred vendors let us know about the 60 day suspension as well as the fact that these pads do NOT have to be used for EVERY prescription written by your office. Only for controlled substances as listed here which can help many General Dentist offices keep costs down because they don't write as many of these types of prescriptions.
