The Controlled Substance Paradigm: Navigating PDMP in Georgia
Distinguished Pharmacy Owners,
Georgia’s Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) is a crucial tool in combating the misuse of prescription medications, particularly controlled substances. PDMP helps prescribers and pharmacists, like ourselves, in providing the highest standards of care while ensuring community safety.
As a pharmacy owner, your compliance with PDMP is indispensable. The Georgia PDMP mandates that pharmacists enter prescription information for Schedule II, III, IV, and V controlled substances into a statewide database within 24 hours of dispensing. This real-time data allows for vigilant monitoring and the prevention of “doctor shopping.”
PDMP compliance is not just about fulfilling a legal requirement; it's a matter of social responsibility. By actively participating in PDMP, you contribute to the welfare of your community and the entire state. It aids in identifying potential cases of misuse and affords you the opportunity to counsel patients on the safe use of medications.
Your pharmacy is an anchor in the community; let’s ensure it remains a stronghold of safety and trust.
