CONT SUB-PMP-SCHEDULE II&IV

Summary

The law amends Illinois’ Controlled Substances Act to require every prescriber or their designated staff to document an attempt to query the state Prescription Monitoring Program when issuing a refill or subsequent prescription for Schedule II or IV controlled substances, except for oncology, palliative care, or short‑term emergency‑department supplies. Veterinarians are exempt from PMP registration, and hospitals must enable a designee to access the PMP for services provided on site. The change is intended to reduce medication‑shopping while preserving needed care for certain patients.
