Best Answer

No, as long as your doctor is legally permitted to practice medicine, your prescription should be valid across state lines.

What are the differences between legal drugs and illegal drugs?

Well, that should be pretty basic... Legal drugs are medications sanctioned by the federal government and the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and are able to be prescribed and bought commercially over-the-counter. For example, tylenol, robitussin, percocet,etc.) Basically, anything prescribed by a physician and not re-distributed by the patient. Illegal drugs are drugs that have not been approved for use by the Government or FDA, are synthetically manufactured, and whose sole purpose is to cause intoxication or an altered mental state. Some will attempt to argue tha in certain states, marijuana has been approved for medicinal purposes. while this is true, and cannabis can be beneficial in rare instances, keep in mind that is still prohibited by federal law, and although a medicinal user may have state approval, he or she can still be charged with a federal offense.

Is a drug legal or illegal?

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.
