As long as the meds are being taken as prescribed and for legitimate purposes, and not being abused, then it should not affect your chance of getting custody. But if you are abusing them, including 'doctor hopping' by going to multiple doctors to obtain the prescriptions, then yes, it absolutely can affect your chance of gettting custody of your children.

Also, depending on the type of pain meds, you should never drive while you are taking the meds, especially if your children are in the car with you. Otherwise, this could result in you losing custody of your children, too.
