SCENARIO

Dr. Lee phones the pharmacy to call in a new prescription for oxycodone, a Schedule II opioid, for a patient's chronic back pain. It is not an emergency. A month later the patient returns and asks to have the same prescription refilled, and the pharmacy notices its oxycodone stock is low and needs to reorder from the wholesaler.

Q.1

Can the pharmacy dispense based on this phoned-in Schedule II order?
