Prescribing controlled substances as a primary care NP can come with a number of risks, including potential exacerbation of the ongoing opioid crisis. Many NPs have ceased controlled substance prescribing all together due to a myriad of liabilities, including opioids, benzodiazepines, controlled sedative-hypnotics, psychostimulants, or stimulants for weight control. For those who intend to continue prescribing but want to proceed safely and responsibly, this session led by Dr. Sally Miller may be right for you. Learn how to best protect patients and yourself: including those with longterm controlled substance prescriptions used treat ongoing symptoms and conditions.
