Once I discovered that the Sudafed that I had been purchasing OTC for years was only available "behind-the-counter" in its original formula, I asked the Pharmacist why the change for the OTC and why am I signing for something that I had been purchasing for years.... He told me that an active ingredient was used to MFG drugs and the local PD collected the log book once a month. I never knew which ingredient or what drug though.
