    Controlled Substance Contract
    Controlled substance medications (i.e. narcotics, tranquilizers, and barbiturates) are very useful, but have a high potential for misuse and are, therefore, closely controlled by local, state, and federal governments. They are intended to relieve pain, thus improving function, and/or ability to work.
    Because my provider is prescribing controlled substance medications to help manage my pain, I agree to the following:

    I am responsible for the controlled substance medications prescribed to me. If my prescriptions are misplaced, stolen, or if I “run out early”, I understand that this medication will not be replaced regardless of the circumstances.

    Refills of controlled substance medications; “run out early”, I understand that this medication will not be replaced regardless of the circumstances.

    a) will only be made during regular office hours, Monday through Friday, in person, once a month, and during a scheduled office visit. Refills will not be made at night, weekends, or during holidays.

    b) will not be written for more than a 10 day period without refills.

    c) will not be made if “I lost my prescription”, ran out early, or misplaced my medication. I am solely responsible for taking the medication as prescribed and for keeping track of the remaining.

    d) I understand that I must call ahead within 72 hours to schedule an appointment.

    It may be deemed necessary by my doctor that I see a medication-use specialist (pain management) at the time and during the time that I am receiving controlled substance medications. I understand that if I do not attend such an appointment, my medications may be discontinued, or may not be refilled beyond tapering dose completion. I understand that if the specialist feels that I am at risk for psychological dependence (addiction), my medications will no longer be filled.

    I understand that if I violate any of the above conditions, my prescriptions for controlled medications may be terminated immediately. If the violation involves obtaining these medications from another individual, or the concomitant use of non-prescription illicit (illegal) drugs, I may also be reported to other physicians, pharmacies, medical facilities, and the appropriate authorities.

    I understand that the main treatment goal is to reduce pain, and improve my ability to function and/or work. In consideration of this goal, and the fact that I am being given potent medication to reach my goal, I agree to help myself by following better health habits, exercise, weight control, and avoidance of the use of tobacco and alcohol. I must also comply with the treatment plan as prescribed by my physician.

    I understand that the long term advantages and disadvantages of chronic opioid use may have yet to be scientifically determined and my treatment may change at any time. I understand, accept and agree that there may be unknown risks associated with the long term use of controlled substances that my physician will advise me of advances in the field and will make necessary treatment changes.

    I further understand that if I violate this controlled substance contract due to non-compliance of medical directions, such as, failure in taking medications as prescribed, utilizing other illicit drugs, or abuse of controlled medications, I may be subject to dismissal from this facility.

    I have been fully informed by my provider regarding psychological dependence (addiction) of controlled substance medications. I know that some individuals may develop a tolerance to the medications, necessitating a dose increase to achieve desired effect, and doing so increases the risk of becoming physically dependent on the medication. This may occur if I am on the medication for several weeks. Therefore, when I need to stop taking the medication, I must do so slowly and under medical supervision, or I may have withdrawal symptoms.
