Re: “... comes up to the counter to buy a BIG box of Sudafed.”
I'm surprised that "BIG" boxes are sold. Just how much sudafed does a family need?

Of course, I don't know how big the "BIG" box you describe actually is. And maybe it's like modern potato chip bags... not nearly as much product as the container leads a person to think.

I buy pseudoephedrine from the pharmacist because it works much better than the new stuff. I suspect like many other states, Texas allows you to buy pseudoephedrine if you show your driver's license to the pharmacist so they can check to see if you have purchased more than the allowed limit over a certain period of time.

This may slow down purchases for the production of crystal meth, but it certainly doesn't stop it. I was refilling a prescription and this sketchy-looking dude comes up to the counter to buy a BIG box of Sudafed. The pharmacist and I look at each other with a smirk. His driver's license is checked and ... voilà ... guess what? ... his purchase is denied because of a recent previous purchase. He leaves. A few minutes later, a woman ... who, unfortunately, was probably in her thirties, but looked like she was in her seventies ... comes up to the counter to buy a BIG box of Sudafed. Her driver's license passes muster and the pharmacist is obligated to sell her the Sudafed. She leaves. On my way out to my car in the parking lot, I pass a parked car with the sketchy-looking dude, the old-looking young woman, and some others just sitting there huffing out of a plastic two-liter soda pop bottle.

Later on, I told this story to someone else and he said addicts mix the Sudafed with diesel fuel in the bottle and huff it for a quick fix.

Pitiful.
