(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2028)
Sec. 15.5.
Prescription information.
(a) Uncoordinated multiple controlled substances and drug seeking tendencies
pose a significant threat to the health, safety, and welfare of patients. To
address this threat, the General Assembly believes a physician who prescribes
controlled substances should be provided with prescription information from
pharmacies.
(b) Upon request, a pharmacist shall provide a physician licensed to
practice medicine in all its branches who is prepared to prescribe or has
prescribed a controlled substance for a patient with information from the
patient's most recent patient profile, including information about any
prescriptions for controlled substances.
