Make sure you have all taken the REMS online for opioids. We were all 'strongly advised' to take this some time back. It did take me a few hours. I can imagine one of the first things an attorney will ask is what special training you have for prescribing opioids. If you say, well I'm a doctor aren't I? they will then pull out the letter on REMS training and ask if you have seen it.
Our state does not allow post-dating, but you can prescribe up to 90 days at a time for a schedule 2, is my understanding.
I would like to invite you to join me at University of Washington in Seattle Nov 1 and 2 for an excellent Chronic Pain CME.
(There is also an oyster, seafood, wine, and beer festival Saturday night!)
