True, but not when it comes to narcotics. Doctors are very hesitant to prescribe narcotics to patients outside of a hospital.

Same goes for medicine, practices and theories on how to treat…anything…changes constantly. I listen to my doctor, but that’s not my point. My problem in this case is how easily they give these relatively powerful stimulants out, and to kids nonetheless. It all just seems really dangerous to me.

I do agree with you here, When my sister hot here wisdom teeth pulled they prescribed her 14 days of hydro 2IX. However, a doctor has a no way of knowing if someone is faking a pain or symptom to their defense.
