No, I do not agree with Federal regulation of prescription drugs. These drugs should be sold to people with a prescription from a doctor. Pharmacists & doctors as a group should dictate what drugs are prescription & which OTC, NOT some bureaucrat in WDC. Do you not see how government interference in our healthcare system has been a bad thing?

People already share their prescription drugs with friends & family for medicinal & recreational purposes. They have been doing it since regulation began. My grandmother gave me one of her prescription pain killers when I was a child in pain. Do I think she should go to jail for doing that? NO, but the police & government do.

That's not what I asked you.

Anything prescribed, is a controlled substance, the teeth of enforcement comes from the police (government)

And that makes it smart, logical or right. You're OK with that.

What if you had OD'd or had a drug interaction or an allergic reaction and died?

I was NEVER a "child".
