Thousands of doctors have received “intimidating and insulting” compliance letters for allegedly not checking script-monitoring software before prescribing drugs of addiction, AMA Queensland says.

The letters relate to QScript, which sends doctors an alert if they are about to prescribe S8 drugs or high-risk S4 drugs, such as benzodiazepines, to patients who already have a script for them.
