Here in Ohio NP's also have to have a doctor on site and they can write for Vicodin but nothing stronger than that, I am sure it has to do with the level of narcotics it (i.s schedule I,schedule II)...

The damn doctors do this crap all the time, they dont want us to become dependent upon the narcotics, but they are the only thing that works, Lyrica is also a medication that causes addiction. I also...
It makes you wonder if the Percocet and Vicodin is such a concern for the government why is it the first drug all doctors start handing out. We are patients and we are looking to the medical...
I am in Ohio and we don't have fingerprints for medications, we can take our meds to any pharmacy no matter where it originated from. The most we have to do here is show our drivers license. And like...
