What over the counter medication is addictive in California?
Question by Daniel: What over the counter medication is addictive in California?
I’m doing a project for psychology and I need to know what kind of medication that can be physically addictive that is over the counter and needs no doctor’s prescription.
Please and thank you =D

None that I know of. Addictive medications that I am familiar with are controlled drugs and require a prescription.
There are a few I think people say they are addicted too, like anti-histamines, but I don’t think they are actually physically addictive.
