This depends on a few different things. You may be prescribed a medication, and when you get it and use it properly, it is legal. If it is the kind of drug that people misuse and you lose, sell or give it away, it becomes illegal. You and the person who receives it would be in trouble if you sell or give it away. Drugs that are prepared in home 'labs' are always illegal. Medical marijuana poses an interesting dilemma. In states that support medical marijuana, it is considered legal (if properly handled and distributed) under state law. But federal law holds that marijuana is illegal everywhere in the US regardless of state law.

What are the legal implications of drug use?
Legal implications of drug use is a "loaded" question. It depends on whether or not the drug is legal for use in society. If the drug is "legal" AND prescribed by a physician licensed to prescribe said "drug", and used ONLY by the patient to whom the "drug" was prescribed, then there should be no LEGAL ramifications. If, AND ONLY if the "drug" in question is listed as ILLEGAL for consumption in society will legal ramifications occur. In other words: If you are using MEDICATION (drugs) that are illegal to use, or consuming Medication that has not been prescribed to you by a licensed physician, ultimately you are breaking the law.
