> I was told by a college professor recently that Congress just passed a new law this year stating that you could recieve prescription drugs from overseas pharmacys by mail without a doctors script as long as it wasn't over a 90 days supply,wasn't to be resold, and was for personal consumption only, even if they were Xanax, Valium, Vicodin, etc. Do you know where to verify this info?If you find out please let me know.Dream on. Congress is not that stupid. Please get to your student health clinic or see an M.D. or a D.O., preferably a psychiatrist. I can't imagine a prof telling you that. These meds come under the Federal Controlled Substances Act which is administered by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). You can get help, but please look in the right places and keep yourself from further troubles. You need the supervision of a licensed, board certified physician to guide you.
If you were my young adult child I would hope that someone would give them the good advice you've been given here.

P.S. You can verify this info by checking with the DEA
