Technically, sometimes. A doctor may be permitted to prescribe >2 months of dose in some situations, and can issue a repeat prescription if necessary (this means the person goes in every month with the same script, rather than getting a large amount of medicine at once or a new script every time).

This will vary from state to state, as each state's board of pharmacy may enact it's own rules. It may also depend on your insurance. Generally, prescriptions are good for one year. Controlled substances must be filled within 30 days. Note that your insurance plan may layer additional restrictions on top of those imposed by your state. For example, in New York state, medicaid requires a new prescription for a non-controlled substance to be filled within 60 days from the time it is written, or medicaid payment will be denied.

It would all depend on your entire criminal history. You are reviewed every 6 months after sentencing. If you don't have a lenghty record you should be eligible your 1st time up. And as long as you are doing everything that is asked of you in TDC and stay out of trouble you won't be in there that long. I received two 8 yr. sentences. 1 for possession and 1 for manual delivery of a controlled substance(to an undercover). I did 10 months in the county jail and then pulled chain to TDC and did 13 months there. I made parole only after being in TDC for 7 months but I had to wait 6 months to complete so classes before I was released.
