On December 22,2017, Gov. Tom Wolf (D) signed SB 728 into law which will allow a prescriber to forego querying the Prescription Monitoring Program database when they prescribe a nonnarcotic Schedule V controlled substance that treats an epilepsy or seizure disorder to a patient. The law will be effective 60 days from the date of signing.
