I went to buy Nyquil a couple of years ago when I lived in Indiana and I had to sign a paper and write my address as well. If under 18, you cannot buy certain OTC medication, and if over 18 they want to see how often adults are buying it and they will refuse to sell it to you if you are abusing it. Now I live in PA and I can buy Nyquil with no questions asked and it is on the shelf whereas in Indiana you have to get it from the pharmacist.

The Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005 has been incorporated into the Patriot Act signed by President Bush on March 9, 2006. The act bans over-the-counter sales of cold medicines that contain the ingredient pseudoephedrine, which is commonly used to make methamphetamine.

It was only when she opened Season 1 of Breaking Bad and started watching it on a DVD player that they became suspicious. " *not really, I made that up .

I love how this popped into the Addictions category. Alex, do we need to have a private chat? ;)It's been for a few years (I think the previous answers have all the details).

It's unfortunate for people like me with major allergies cos I can't just "load up" on the claritin like I used to - gotta keep running back in to get 1 big pack at a time since they have the "fed" part in any allergy meds with "D" at at the end for the decongestant.

Given the notion that our emotions are biochemical addictions, would you rather overcome your addictions or harness them.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest.
