It does not appear on any approved drug list and the FDA blocks imports of the drug into the US.\n\nThe prescription may not be illegal, if it was issued by a doctor in a country, like Mexico, where it is legal. You cannot get it filled in the US, and if you do get it filled in another country, bringing it into this country is illegal.

If you have no accident or personal injury to another attached to the D.U.I.,then they won't cross state lines to nail you. I know because I live one state away from the state I was busted for back in 1986. They don't care if I am here nor are they trying to get me. I have quit drinking a long time ago!!!!!

Here is the official position of Food and Drug Administration  answering your question.\n\nThe United States Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. sections 331(d), and 355(a)), which is administered by FDA, prohibits the interstate shipment (which includes importation) of unapproved new drugs. Unapproved new drugs are any drugs, including foreign-made versions of U.S. approved drugs, that have not received FDA approval to demonstrate they meet the federal requirements for safety and effectiveness. It is the importer's obligation to demonstrate to FDA that any drugs offered for importation have been approved by FDA.\n\nFDA has developed guidance entitled "Coverage of Personal Importations" which sets forth that agency's enforcement priorities with respect to the personal importation of unapproved new drugs by individuals for their personal use. The guidance identifies circumstances in which FDA may consider exercising enforcement discretion and refrain from taking legal action against illegally imported drugs. Those circumstances are as follows:\n\n"1) the intended use [of the drug] is unapproved and for a serious condition for which effective treatment may not be available domestically either through commercial or clinical means; \n\n2) there is no known commercialization or promotion to persons residing in the U.S. by those involved in the distribution of the product at issue; \n\n3) the product is considered not to represent an unreasonable risk; \n\nand \n\n4) the individual seeking to import the product affirms in writing that it is for the patient's own use (generally not more than a 3 month supply) and provides the name and address of the doctor licensed in the U.S. responsible for his or her treatment with the product, or provides evidence that the product is for the continuation of a treatment begun in a foreign country." (Emphasis added)\n\nFDA's guidance is not, however, a license for individuals to import unapproved (and therefore illegal) drugs for personal use into the U.S. Even if all of the factors noted in the guidance are present, the drugs remain illegal and FDA may decide that such drugs should be refused entry or seized. The guidance represents FDA's current thinking regarding the issues of personal importation and is intended only to provide operating guidance for FDA personnel. The guidance does not create any legally enforceable rights for the public; nor does it operate to bind FDA or the public. \n\nTo avoid travel delays and to prevent possible harm from taking unsafe or ineffective medications, residents and visitors upon arrival to or departure from the U.S. should keep in mind the following precautions:\n\nDo not assume that medications which are legal in foreign countries are also approved for use in the United States. These products may be illegal and may include addictive and dangerous substances;\n \n\nBe aware that the labeled uses (conditions for which the product is represented to be effective) for a product purchased outside the U.S. may not be approved in the United States;\n \nIt can be dangerous to take some medications without medical supervision. The reason why some medications are limited to prescription use in the United States is that either they are unsafe without medical supervision or a medical diagnosis is required to ensure that the medication is appropriate for your condition;\n \nAvoid purchasing any drug products that are not approved for sale in the U.S. (including foreign-manufactured versions of U.S. approved drugs). FDA cannot assure that these products conform to the manufacturing and quality assurance procedures mandated by U.S. laws and regulations and, therefore, these products may be unsafe. In addition, such products are illegal in the U.S. and, therefore, may be subject to entry refusal;\n \nSome medications which may appear to be U.S. approved drug products may in fact be counterfeit versions of such products.

There are some States, including Texas, where it is illegal to have prescription drugs in your possession without a valid prescription.  The level of the crime, i.e. misdemeanor or felony, is dependent upon whether or not the drugs are controlled substances or not, i.e. schedule 1,2, or 3 drugs.

They will show up. As long as you have a prescription and can explain why they are in your system, you should be okay. Some places require a physicians note explaining your condition.\nIt is always good to be upfront with the person doing the testing and let them know what you are taking, it's good to take the prescription bottle with you.

Yes, I once ordered it online when I couldn't get to my doctor.  It was the real thing and I had no problem with the delivery.  It is best to order it from a US based pharmacy (if you live in the United States) as overseas can take a month or more to arrive, and there is always the possibility of it being confiscated by customs.  That doesn't mean you would be prosecuted or anything, just that you wouldn't receive it after having paid.  It is legal in the U.S. because of the 'complimentary, online consultation'.  That's how they get around it.  But there are a few states that don't allow you to receive it - Kentucky is one, plus a couple of others.   Also, almost all of them only allow Visa as a form of payment.

If you don't have a prescription, it's a scam.  If you do happen to get drugs from them, they're likely to be couterfeit.  The only safe, legal way to get a prescription drug is to be prescribed it and then get it from a local pharmacy.

I work for an eye dr. & know for a fact that it is illegal for a physician to release a CL RX that is expired.  Here's a little secret though.  Make an appointment and ask for a trial pair to get you by until your appointment and then when the appt. comes up--cancel it!  People do that all the time, but sooner or later you will have to see the dr. in order to keep getting CL's--Good Luck!

I suggest you call your pharmacist and ASK. You should have been provided with information when the prescription was filled. If not, ASK FOR IT.

oxazepam is in a drug class called benzodiazepines. They are not only prescription, but also what the pharmacies call 'controlled' which means it must be handled carefully and is protected by special laws due to its addictive qualities.\n\nI'm sure if you really try you can get it no problem. but it would be cheaper to just do it legally and then of course there is the whole not going to jail thing...

It's not banned. Why would your doctor tell you to take an illegal medicine; he'd lose his job.\nIt does work, but it's addictive.  You can't take it for a long time--more than a few months.  It also stops working as your body first becomes used to it and then dependent on it.\nIf your doctor prescribed it to you, he must think your body is healthy enough to be able to take it. It is a stimulant.\nThere are forums on the Phentermine web site where you can talk to other uses. But DO NOT buy your prescription from there or online, it's SO MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE.\nI don't know what "benfluorex" is, nor do I go around commanding people.

There's no shortage.  I walk into my local pharmacy with my prescription and get it immediately.  For a lot less than people are paying on line for the same amount.\n\nIf you are truly overweight enough to need to take phentermine, then your regular local doctor shouldn't have a problem prescribing it for you.  \n\nAs far as your order not coming in a month, have they charged your credit card? If not, cancel the order. If they have, call your credit card company and have the charge reversed. That will get their attention fast.\n\nAnd for that person who said it's bad, #1 you didn't answer the question and #2 you're misinformed and probably thinking of phen-fen.

norcalmofo is being ridiculous.  'Shrooms are definitely illegal (schedule 1 = as illegal as anything can be), and if they catch you with them, I seriously doubt they are going to let you chomp them quickly after they catch you.  Besides which, you're going to have a very hard time finding those, because 'shrooms sold on the street are really likely to be either bogus or be regular mushrooms with LSD on them, and unless you're a professional mycologist, you'd be playing a very deadly game to mess around with anything you find growing somewhere.  If you want to do shrooms, my advice is to fly to Amsterdam some day and buy them in a local store--but certainly not a good idea in the US.  And while most standard drug tests don't look for psilocybin, there's no guarantee that they couldn't look for it if they had a reason to think that that was what they should look for.\n\nGenerally speaking, I think it's a bad idea to mess with hallucinogens at all, and an even worse idea to mess around with legal ones.  Usually they are legal because there's something so tremendously horrible about them that you wouldn't want to do them.  Nutmeg, for instance, has two components (elemicin and myristicin) that are hallucinogenic, being similar in structure to mescaline (the active ingredient in peyote).  If you take a huge heaping tablespoon of nutmeg, you'll trip, but you'll wish you were dead.  The side effects include nausea, disorientation, shaking, loss of motor control, etc.  That's why they don't outlaw nutmeg--anyone dumb enough to try it once will generally never try it again, and be left with horrible memories.  Most of the "good" hallicinogens--meaning those with the most euphoric results and minimized side effects--are all illegal.

Technically no, but it's amazing what you can get when you present the issue in a way that a pharmacist will feel safe about the transaction. \n\nI am amazed at how easy it is to get controlled drugs here in Costa Rica. I am not an abuser; rather have medical problems that require medications that must have prescriptions in the U.S.  Here I can merely show the prescription bottle (no ID required) or tell the pharmacist what I need. On New Years Eve I had an awful back pain and was able to get codeine with no problem.\n\nNow, if they think you want the drugs for illegal or recreational purposes, that's another story!

I read both questions. . . You MUST turn in your friend.\n\nStealing a controlled substance is against the law (more so than being in possession of a prescription that isn't yours - which is also against the law).\n\nIf you are found to be hiding the information, you will be just as guilty and at the very least charged with Obstruction of an Office in the line of duty.  Not nice to have on your record.\n\nYou could also be charged as an accomplice to the theft.\n\nAlso, you are not doing your friend any favors by pretending that he/she doesn't have a drug problem.  Turn them in and allow them to get help.

Well it's illegal, so no, not really. You could get in big trouble for possession if you get caught.
