Updated information that was recently deleted. Also, made some things clearer. Updated the BNF edtion reference
Line 31:
Include drugs subject to the same prescription requirements as Schedule 2 drugs, but without the requirement to maintain registers. [[Temazepam]] is also exempt from the rules on writing CD prescriptions; for example, it does not need quantity stated in words and figures. With the exception of phenobarbitone or related drugs for treatment of epilepsy, no Sch 3 drug can be given as an emergency supply.
Safe custody is currently only required for Tenuate Dospan (diethylpropion), [[buprenorphine]] products, temazepam and flunitrazepam (Rohypnol). Neither phenobarbitone nor midazolam require safe custody. Other Sch 3 drugs can be stored in the general dispensary.
