>Heroin has no medical use in the US and is so banned for any use of it. There are plenty of morphine related narcotics available for pain management.
........all of which are used recreationally. Pharmacologically, there's nothing specifically bad about Heroin compared to say, hydrocodone or oxycodone. Heroin is schedule 1 in the US due to historical reasons, not pharmacologic reasons.
>So that's my point -- recreational use of hard drug substances which leads to thousands of wasted dollars, grand theft, murder, etc, and legitimate medical uses
OK, but what does that have to do with OTC codeine?
