Those specific Max Rx Days limits will remain in place.
Additionally, this change does not apply to any Controlled Substance NDC?s with a DEA Schedule of II, III, IV, or V. Thank you for all that you are doing during this time. We will let you know of any other changes that may be needed for this situation.
