If they're aspirin, it would be petty theft (a misdemeanor).

If they're hydrocodone, the theft itself is probably still a misdemeanor, but you could add "possession of a controlled substance" to it, which means you could be looking at a much more severe sentence.

As is generally the case with legal matters, it's impossible for us to give a definitive answer since the law varies from location to location and judges usually have considerable discretion in sentencing. If you really need to know, check with a local attorney (it probably won't be free).
