Another angle to consider is what family members you would be treating with these meds - if any are minor children you could conceivably run into trouble.

In my school district, student athletes at the middle & high school levels are given random drug tests. If a child tests positive for a substance that could have been legally prescribed (like opiates), the parents are required to provide proof of prescription. If unable to do so, the student is kicked off the team and the district along with LE (usually the DARE officer)intervenes. As a parent, you could find yourself in legal trouble for medicating your child with narcotics without medical supervision.

Anyway, this scenario may seem far-fetched (although I assure you its not, in this area anyhow) and may not apply to you but if it changes the way any one DB member thinks about medicating their children, good. Voluntary adult self-medication with narcotics is one thing, medicating one's children with narcotics is a whole different ball game.

Take care
