Abstract

The Iowa Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP) became fully operational on March 25, 2009 and provides authorized prescribers and pharmacists with on-going information regarding their patients’ use of controlled substances, and is used as a tool in determining appropriate prescribing and treatment of patients without fear of contributing to a patient’s abuse of, or dependence on, addictive drugs or diversion of those drugs to illicit use. Iowa licensed pharmacies, both resident and nonresident, and dispensing prescribers, are required to report to the PMP all Schedule II, III, IV and V controlled substances along with opioid antagonists (e.g., naloxone) dispensed to ambulatory patients.
