How are medications assigned to DEA schedules? Are there public hearings or similar opportunities for comment? Or is the DEA allowed to make such decisions unilaterally? I am concerned about a useful drug like Provigil (modafinil) being assigned to a DEA schedule without any evidence that it has significant abuse potential. I have a prescription for Provigil, and the conspiracy theorist in me suspects that the government did this simply to prevent us from obtaining the medication at a much lower price from Canada (DEA scheduled drugs cannot be imported by consumers.)
