Isn't that what happened to pseudoephedrine? Went from being OTC to very hard to get because of recreational use.


"hard to get" is overselling it a little. Maybe hard to get in very large quantities. Where I am, I can get up to 7.5 grams per month with zero issues. Not enough to make meth, enough for the maximum dose every day of every month.


I dont consider walking up to the counter and saying "I'd like to purchase pseudoephedrine" 'very hard.'
