Not all medication needs to be classified as a scheduled drug.

Drugs that are scheduled drugs are usually;

Amphetamines (Ritalin, Cocaine, etc.)

THC (Marijuana)

Barbiturates (Phenobarbital, etc.)

Opiates (Oxycodone (Percocet), Hydrocodone (Vicodin), Heroin, etc.)

LSD

PCP

Benzodiazepenes (Klonopin, Kpins, Clonazepam, Xanax, Lorazepam (Ativan), etc

Sleep Medication such as Ambien, and Lunesta with psychodelic properties.

This is because these drugs have either little or high risk for abuse...and are scheduled also because they are not to be held by any body other than whom the medication was prescribed for.

For instance, if you have 2 Cymbalta pills for depression, and I get caught with them by the police - It is possible that I will go to jail, but the drug is not a Scheduled chemical, therefore, there is no risk that I am selling or using for any illegal purposes.

If I get caught with Vicodin, and I do not have a prescription for it, then my a** will go to jail, with only a small chancel, like 1% that I won't if I have good use.

Look up scheduled drugs on Wikipedia, you will learn more than asking questions on WIKI ANSWERS.

How does zoos use math?

To figure the amounts of medications, vits, and food for the animals math is needed. You would need to know how many of each animal, and then use that to figure how much food to prepare for each animal. You'd need to count all the animals, to make sure all were accounted for and none were missing. Also, you'd need to use math for deciding when to set-up schedules for breeding the animals. Math is used in all everyday life, not just in zoos, but they are a good example.
