Schedule II drugs have how many refills allowed?

Schedule II drugs are tightly controlled and have no refills. The prescriber must issue a new prescription each time more medication is needed, and a pharmacist cannot refill the same prescription. If another supply is required, a fresh prescription from the prescriber is necessary. (Partial fills are allowed in some situations, but they are not considered refills and still require an original prescriber authorization.) Therefore, no refills are allowed.
