Alcohol is legal while pot isn't. And I can't have refills on my sons perscription, or fill it more than 3 days early because someone might "abuse" it. Not supporting an action, just pointing out the absurdity.
Once I went to pick up some of my medication for seizures a week early because I was going out of town and they literally interrogated me and called the manager. Like bro wtf am I gonna do with extra seizure meds???
I think I need a note signed by the president to pick up my kids adhd meds early due to a vacation. The pharmacists at my place are good though, they don't judge or anything, they just can't do things the computer says no to.
Cannabis is perfectly legal in California and has been for some time.
But still illegal federally... wait until donald want to deport people for smoking pot...
Not sure what your son takes but when it comes to people freaking out on alcohol, some prescriptions like Xanax have a tendency to make people act worse. I think it's because people get intoxicated quicker and their brains are like where the fuck am I so they have a tendency to freak out easier. Kind of like a bad trip I guess. I imagine Xanax, Meth, and Alcohol put your odds of something shitty happening at around 1 in 5.
But on the other hand, it's dumb that you should struggle to pick up medications. Most of our medical field needs to be re-assessed.
Xanax and alcohol are both GABA positive allosteric modulators; taking them together greatly strengthens the effects of both
