The response was dramatic, as the researchers noted in an article published last month in the Journal of General Internal Medicine. After 41 weeks, the percentage of physicians prescribing 20 Oxy/APAP pills dropped from 22.8% to 16.1%, while the percentage prescribing 10 pills jumped from 20.6% to 43.3%, Delgado said. The percentage of doctors prescribing 11 to 19 pills also declined, from 33.5% before the switch to 20.1% afterward.
