Bruh, what the fuck even is this reporting. Zofran (ondansetron) is given to all sorts of patients for nausea and vomiting, not just cancer patients, and it sure as shit isn't a controlled substance.
i was confused because its used for nausea, pregnant woman uses it too, and its not illegal to carry it. unless she was planning to sell it for some reason.
Is the articke mistaking Zofran for Zoloft?
Zoloft is ALSO not a controlled substance.
Both are only "controlled" in the way that they both require a prescription and are not available OTC.
i think they are trying to make it out as a Rx as a illegal substance for some reason. it would be different if she was trying to sell them? maybe, but the article dint mention any attempt to sell drugs.
