First they hide it behind the counter, then they get busy arresting grandmothers who buy it too often, now it's going prescription so it will cost like $100 just to get some decongestants. Talk about health care inflation. I have to see a doctor to diagnose a stuffy nose? Come on now...
"They plan to do what prohibitionists always do in the face of failure: double down—in this case by requiring prescriptions for a cheap, safe, effective decongestant that not long ago was readily available in convenience stores across the land. That requirement will force doctors to police Americans' pseudoephedrine consumption, encouraging them to treat every patient with a stuffy nose as a potential crank kingpin."
