Overview
In partnership with pharmacists and dentists, the Council of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA) established the Triplicate Prescription Program (TPP) to monitor the use of certain drugs prone to misuse and abuse for non-medical purposes.
| Triplicate Prescription Program Update (July 2010) An improved online presentation of the TPP Medication List incorporating minor updates was implemented on the CPSA website on June 30, 2010. The medication list displays all included drugs by the generic names of ingredients. Example trade names are provided for reference. A new cross-reference list of example trade names has been added. Some key changes: -
Improved description of buprenorphine prescribing requirements presented under ‘Prescriber Notes’ -
Addition of Butrans® sample trade name under buprenorphine -
Note that Concerta® is an exception to methylphenidate products included in TPP -
Addition of Novo-Methylphenidate ER-C® sample trade name under methylphenidate The revised TPP Medication List is available at: http://cpsa.ab.ca/Services/Triplicate_Prescription_Program/TPP_Medication_List.aspx |
