Abstract
The South Carolina Prescription Monitoring Program (SC PMP) became fully operational on February 1, 2008. The purpose of the SC PMP is intended to improve the state’s ability to identify and stop the diversion of prescription drugs in an efficient and cost-effective manner that will not impede the appropriate medical utilization of licit controlled substances. This summary highlights (1) prescription trends, (2) trends in prescriber and pharmacist SC PMP utilization, (3) prescription trends by prescriber specialty, (4) prescription trends among in-state and out-of-state prescribers, and (5) opioid antidote administration trends. The full report provides details regarding the dispensing patterns in SC by drug schedule.
