To protect the health and safety of the public and our employees, DCP has limited on-site staffing at 450 Columbus Blvd. While mail and phone calls will be processed as quickly as possible, we recommend using our online services, or sending an email to the appropriate division/person instead. We apologize for any inconvenience.

PMP Statistics

Here you can find data related to the Connecticut Prescription Monitoring and Reporting System (CPMRS) in addition to the dispensation of Schedule II-V controlled substance prescriptions in Connecticut. This includes, but is not limited to, controlled substance prescriptions that were filled, patient demographic environment, CPMRS registration, CPMRS utilization, and interstate data sharing.
 
*Disclaimer: All of the data reported by the PMP is compiled at specific points in time and captures only data currently entered at that time. The data values may subsequently be updated and may change over time as those updates occur. Accordingly, quarterly reported data may not perfectly match annually reported data. The data does not contain any information about the diagnosis and does not reflect the use intended by the prescriber.
