I agree. Basing a prescription limit on the "number of pills"
is stupid and ridiculous. There is absolutely no relevance to pain mgmt at all.
The variety of analgesics, dosages, drug delivery systems, and strengths available to any physician makes this one of the dumbest and least relevant of any "rule" foisted upon us by a regulator.
Does anyone think for a second that a physician caring for a chronic cancer patient or failed back syndrome or intractable neurologic sufferer gives a rat's Best if kept off the board about how many pills? All one has to do is alter the dosage, change the drug, change to route of administration etc.
If anyone is cowered by how many pills you can obtain per Rx you are totally missing the point.
