On the left side of the screen is a new tab titled "Updates on Controlled Substances". In this section, you can find updates on changes in rules on the prescribing of Controlled Substances in Alabama. The first entry is a letter from the Alabama Department of Public Health with specific information on when the upcoming change in schedule for tramadol will take place. (Click on [PDF] to view the letter.)

When we at NPAA receive notification of these changes, you can expect notification via email and an addition to this bank of information. NPAA is working to keep upi informed about changes that affect NP practice!
