Hmmm I thought you couldn't get in if you were on maintenance medications of any kind.
Yes, but the Army needs Doctors and Lawyers.
That's going to be a harder and harder standard to enforce, as pharmaceuticals are increasingly being used routinely for "quality of life" purposes, rather than for survival, which used to be virtually the only reason. A lot of people taking Ritalin just do better in school or workplace with it, but are certainly not out of control or totally dysfunctionaly without it. Same for a lot of people using antidepressants and anti-anxiety meds. And the military should be comfortable with that, since they are experimenting with some heavy duty drugs to keep fighter pilots and Special Forces personnel awake and alert for unnatural lengths of time. If it's fine to use drugs to improve performance within the military, doing the same (and with much milder stuff) outside the military shouldn't be a bar to military service.
They're not maintenance, THEY JUST HELP ME CHANNEL MY RAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
