Opioid prescription limits.

SF 46 limits opioid prescriptions for acute pain in Wyoming. It prohibits doctors from prescribing more than a 14-day supply of opioids to patients who haven't used opioids in the past 45 days (defined as "opioid naive"). The law allows exceptions for chronic pain, cancer treatment, and palliative care through board rules. This law took effect on July 1, 2019, directly affecting prescribers and patients seeking initial opioid treatment for short-term pain.
