She isn't my usual doctor but I have seen her atleast once before and it is the same practise as my regular guy, he just wasn't there yesterday.
Sublimit cheers for the info on the doc shopping register, I wonder how long someone stays on for after being put up? I don't think diazepam is an authority script without repeats but I am not certain, I may have fit the criteria you listed when I was abusing a lot more benzo's but as I was using benzo's so often it can be hard to recall! haha.
no worries mate. It gets updated monthly so if someone was on it and wasn't actively fitting the criteria then that person would eventually be automatically removed.
you're right, 1 script of diazepam isn't authority required, but the same script with a repeat is. Just an example of benzo's, with clonazepam under the PBS the only script you can get is for 200 tablets which is an authority script. Oxazepam(alepam) 30mg tablets comes in a bottle of 25 and 50... the 50 is an authority script, while the 25 isn't. I asked this when i was getting them because i wanted something that worked quicker and suggested lorazepam and clonazepam.... my GP(at the time) said he'd be happy to give me lorazepam, but not clonazepam saying that it is only for epilepsy8) I didn't go for lorazepam because it's not under the PBS, and didn't want to spend $40 at the time, so i just said i'll settle for the oxazepam and asked if it came in more than 25 and he said no... So i caught him in 2 lies... the epilepsy excuse was because he didn't want to authorise me a script for 200 clonazepam tablets, and the blatant outright lie of telling me that oxazepam was only available in 25 when i knew better... he was just avoiding giving me an authority script... i found that quite amusing actually.
