Modifies provisions relating to opioid prescriptions

SB 1024 limits initial opioid prescriptions for acute pain to a seven-day supply, requiring doctors to discuss risks and non-opioid alternatives with patients before prescribing. It sets supply limits (30 days for stronger opioids, 90 days for others) and protects pharmacists who follow these rules. The bill applies to most patients but excludes those receiving cancer treatment, hospice care, long-term facility care, or substance abuse treatment. Key provisions aim to reduce opioid overprescribing while ensuring access for specific medical needs.
