Why state laws matter
The United States faces an unprecedented epidemic of prescription drug overdose deaths. States carry most of the responsibility for regulating and enforcing prescription drug practices, and state laws have proven benefits in preventing many kinds of injury — yet little is known about how well state statutes and regulations against prescription drug abuse and diversion work.
With CDC's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, the Public Health Law Program created "menus" summarizing legal strategies states have used against prescription drug misuse, abuse and overdose, for public health practitioners and their legal counsel.
The menus
| Menu | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Time and dosage limit laws | limits on prescribing or dispensing controlled substances |
| Physical examination requirements | laws requiring a practitioner to examine patients before prescribing or dispensing controlled substances |
| Doctor shopping laws | laws on doctor shopping — visiting several practitioners to get controlled substances without each prescriber knowing of the others' prescriptions |
| Tamper-resistant prescription forms | requirements for tamper-resistant forms, to curb diversion |
| Prescription drug identification laws | laws requiring patients to show identification to pharmacists |
| Pain management clinic regulation | how states regulate pain management clinics |
| Overdose emergency laws | laws giving 911 callers who respond to an overdose immunity from prosecution or mitigation at sentencing |
| Pseudoephedrine | federal, state and local efforts to limit access to pseudoephedrine, the main ingredient used to make methamphetamine |
