Um over the counter?


Question Posted Tuesday February 26 2008, 5:46 pm

Hi ... this is probably stupid but I need to ask.
Can anyone just go into a drug store and buy the "over the counter" brands like cold/headache medicine? Or do you have to be a certain age.

Because if anyone can buy stuff just like that, wouldn't it be extremely easy for people to purchase stuff but then use it to get high?
Thanks if anyone answers. :)

Most cold and headache medicines can be acquired by anyone. However, most won't get you high. If you take too much, you will just get very sick and end up in the hospital getting your stomach pumped (not fun!). The ones used to get high can not be purchased without ID (particularly those with pseudoephedrine, as it is often used in making meth) and you have to go to the pharmacy counter to get them. There is usually a limit to how much you can get as well.
