The use of schedule II drugs must be discontinued after how many hours unless otherwise specified?

  1. 24 hours

  2. 48 hours

  3. 72 hours

  4. 96 hours

The correct answer is: 72 hours

Schedule II drugs have a high potential for abuse and physical or psychological dependence. In Wisconsin, the use of schedule II drugs must be discontinued after 72 hours unless otherwise specified. This time limit is set to ensure that residents are not being overmedicated or at risk of adverse effects associated with these powerful medications.
