In WV they just took these medicines off the shelves. You must ask the pharmicist for them.

That sounds like a much better solution. I know it puts the pharmacist in a "cop" role, but better they assume some responsibility within their trade than put a financial burden on the rest of the public.

NONE of these laws are necessary and they will not stop meth production. You need tens of thousands of these pills to make a batch of meth. People who are running meth labs aren't getting their supplies at Walgreen's, they're getting them in bulk from over the border. Oh, sure, there are probably a handful of people here and there who create much tinier supplies by buying a thousand pills, but those people are easy to spot if they wanted to.
