TRENDING TOPICS
U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration reclassifies
hydrocodone products
Change effective Oct. 6
Chief Governmental and Community Relations
Officer
The U.S. Drug Enforcement
Administration recently published a final rule reclassifying drugs
containing hydrocodone combinations from Schedule III to Schedule
II.
Although TMA, through House of
Delegates deliberations held during TexMed in May, objected to
these changes, the move is being implemented in an effort to curb
abuse of these types of medications.
To read the final rule as
published in the Federal Register and to learn more about what this
rule means for physicians and prescribing, click here.
For local discussion on this and other practice
management topics, consider joining the BCMS Legislative and
Socioeconomics Committee by contacting Mary Nava.

CLARIFICATION
Bexar County Medical Society staff scheduled the fall
General Membership Meeting for 6:30 p.m. Sept. 24, with the
understanding that the Jewish observance of Rosh Hashana begins
Sept 25. However, the observance begins at sundown on Sept. 24.
BCMS apologizes for the error. It was not our intent
to conflict with this very important time of the year for our Jewish
physicians. Efforts will be made to avoid similar conflicts in the
future.
