Under the 2007 work-around, the total supply for multiple scheduled II prescriptions issued in one office visit cannot exceed how many days?

The concept here is the 2007 work-around that allows multiple Schedule II prescriptions to be issued in one patient visit with a cumulative quantity not exceeding 90 days. This policy was created to improve continuity of care for patients who need ongoing Schedule II medications by permitting up to three separate prescriptions (each typically up to 30 days) to be written at the same visit, as long as the total does not surpass 90 days. Therefore, the total supply that can be provided across those prescriptions is limited to 90 days. The other options don’t fit because they either would undercut the work-around (too little) or exceed the permitted total (too much).
