I have no idea what Florida law is. I wonder if it would be criminal to go from doctor to doctor -- even if you do have a medical condition -- and not tell them that you had previously taken oxycontin in order to get a new prescription. Just wondering. I don't know.

Criminal not to tell them what other doctors have prescribed.

Criminal seems pretty bad news for this problem.

If I were a legislator, knowing that people sometimes get addicted to pain medication, I'd write the law such that those with a known medical condition not be considered criminal but instead be mandated for treatment at a rehab facility.

Somebody on here last night said that in Florida it's the law that you have to disclose all prescriptions you have to every doctor you see.

But wouldn't that be rather diffcult to pull off when the doctors are in the same office with access to one medical file?
