I asked my doctor to write me a prescription for pseudoephedrine once. They rip open the box (before you get to the pharmacy), dump the pills into a standard pill bottle, and then charge you $5 instead of $11. No ID / signing the ledger required! But yeah, the whole process is very annoying. I think this news about the ineffective stuff being withdrawn is good for us; with more demand for the stuff that works, pharmacies will have to hire more people to comply with the regulations, driving profits down, and finally a lobbyist that matters will be in front of Congress.
