In order to keep health care cost down the ingredient hydrocodone found in Vicodin should be sold over the counter (OTC). Also this will further reduce the need to combat "drug abuse" by the DEA and other law enforcement entities, saving us money in this needless war on drugs. Furthermore someone who has moderate pain should not be forced to spend time and money, and beg for permission from a doctor to get a prescription for hydrocodone for pain management purposes of adults; which might be pointed out is less harmful that alcohol.
Therefore hydrocodone a mild pain reliever should be rescheduled to over the counter purchases of 120 5 milligram tablets, or any combination that make up to 600 milligrams a month upon producing a license of those 18 years or older.
End the War on Drugs
