Limbaugh Detained At Airport Image
Joy Purdy Reporting
(CBS4 News) WEST PALM BEACH Sources have confirmed to CBS4 News that conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh has been detained at Palm Beach International Airport for the possible possession of illegal prescription drugs Monday evening.
Limbaugh was returning on a flight from the Dominican Republic when officials found the drugs, among them Viagra.
Limbaugh entered a plea deal back in April in a previous case where his charge of fraud to conceal information to obtain prescriptions was dropped under the condition he continue undergoing treatment for addiction.
Limbaugh had admitted to being addicted to pain killers on his radio program and had entered a rehabilitation program prior to that arrest.
LOL, but his heart ache of getting over his divorce will get better.
Doctors sometimes give out samples of Viagra or Levitra to their patients...no prescription at all.
Well, they're not saying it was without a Rx, they're saying the Rx was in somebody else's name (and he's saying that it is his Rx but used a pseudonym for privacy reasons...I don't know if that's legal, maybe it is.)
But the fact that he used a pseudonym, it was probably for the Viagra Rx.
That is Bill Clinton's line
"Talent on loan from God" will help his arrogant butt in JAIL.
One may hope.
We own a pharmacy. We can't fill Viagra without a prescription. Sure your doctor can give you samples any time he wants. But you are not legally allowed to fill a prescription for Viagra without a doctor's order. The DEA keeps a close eye on pharmacy records.
>>>is it legally possible to get a prescription made out to someone fictitious even if its for you?
>>No.
Can you cite what law says no?
WHY IS SEE BS REPORTING HE WAS ARRESTED IF HE WAS`NT.WHY DON`T HE MOVE OUT OF THAT LEFTY COUNTY.DOESN`T HE REMEMBER THE RECOUNT.
Other than erectile dysfunction, Viagra has been studied in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension. Today's Annals of Internal Medicine presents a small study showing Viagra increased exercise capacity both in normal and high altitudes, suggesting a possible use in managing acute mountain sickness or other conditions caused by low oxygen levels at the alveoli.
Yes, Pfizer hit the big pharma lottery with Viagra -- originally a heart drug. But let's get real here. If he had Viagra on him, it most likely wasn't for his heart...
The left will drop inuendos about going to the DR with viagra.
Yes, it could be helping him golf at lower altitudes.
(Actually, it's not embarrassing. Many men just keep it around for a little extra boost. It doesn't mean that he has a medical problem.)
Yep, I had a memory of this relieving lots of pain.
I don't know if this has been posted, but tonight Keith Olbermann reported on this story and said: "Rush Limbaugh the Comedian, has been stopped, etc., etc." I know it's petty, but calling Rush a "comedian", come on. Olbermann is just such a jerk.
Yes they were.
Serious question: Can a person posess prescription drugs without their name on the label? I get samples from my doctor and they obviously don't have my name on them.
Also, why couldn't a doctor give a patient prescription drugs that the doctor personally owns?
Somebody please clarify?
Maybe, but didn't Viagra or one of the other "boner drugs" offer FREE samples just for requesting online? Did those people require a prescription?
The left will drop inuendos about going to the DR with viagra.
Within a week an actual person will surface.
