I hope that stays true for others. I don't think they even have evidence that it is addictive. I'll ask my pdoc next time I talk to her.

I think maybe they monitor how much the provider is prescribing? So if they are prescring 3200 mg to everyone they look into that but not general usage?
I looked it up. In my state it's below a controlled substance. I'm sure I'm just being overly paranoid about. I know my pdoc won't take me off it. It's just if I end up IP again I'm worried about it. Sigh.
