Pharmacy-only Non-Prescription Drugs
A pharmacist’s aide at an Osco’s told me that the main reason there are ‘Pharmacy-only Non-Prescription Drugs’ is that if they were truely over-the-counter, it would render weed, cocaine, ectasy, etc… obsolete as the kids would come to the drugstore to get high. I learned it at Southern/Central when getting some Gel-Kam toothpaste. I think I sort of believe him when you see the rate of ritelin abuse in the middle schools.
