Regulating OTC Drugs?

Question by : Regulating OTC drugs?
Lets say that the government wanted to fix the problem of teens overdosing or abusing over the counter medication in the way that they want to get high or drunk. How would they (the government) fix that? Other than the fact of regulating it. Generally, I’m talking about Robotripping (Cough Syrup with DXM’s) or dusting or drinking mouthwash.

“You can bring a horse to water but you can’t make it think.” Same problem with teens. But it’s already covered under the “Child in Need of Services” laws.
