New York will be treating any prescription with hydrocodone as C2, though ordering is still like it is now. Has any other state implemented this?

Also Tramadol will be a c4, and now will need a written prescription every time (NYS requires all controls to be written- unless Emergency 5 day supply) I already get people coming in super early for tramadol and have patients with prescriptions for a whole year, now its going to be worse.
 
Turn down the prescriptions that go for a whole year and the people coming in super early.
