  1. There's really no way to ensure something like that, especially if you live far away, however after surgery they will only be supplied a small amount of the pills; Just enough to get through recovery.  Have you spoke with your family member about your concerns or possibly their doctor?  

    As long as the patient takes only the prescribed dose, for the length of time the doctor tells them your family member should be fine.
