Limiting To A 7 Day Supply In Florida?

Updated

I live in central florida and have been taking oxycodone since 2007. Bad accident and I have Lyme disease. Every year I have been getting cut down. As on recently I'm getting 4 a day 112 a month . Max amount I'm told . But I've been hearing so much on new laws . Only getting a 5 or 7 day supply. Also insurance companies not wanting to pay . So you have to get a different script. If any one knows anything or what's about to happen. Help me out , also it's impossible to switch doctors around here to .

I haven't heard anything about this. Have you tried asking your doctor or pharmacist? They should be up to date on any changes like this.

The FDA warns that Oxycodone carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, headache, and constipation.

Has anyone else heard anything about this?

From what I understand limiting a patient to a seven day prescription is reserved to new prescriptions for an acute injury. So let's say you injured yourself and went to general practitioner, they are being encouraged to only write for seven days. These are not guidelines for pain management doctors treating chronic or long term pain. Hope this helps!
