Talk:Drug prohibition law

Proposed mergers

• It appears to me that Controlled substance and List of schedules for drugs and poisons should become redirects to Drug control law
  

Laurel Bush (talk) 10:30, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Or maybe Controlled substance should be a redirect to Substance control, with the latter as disambig page reading:

Substance control may refer to:

Drug control law, especially in the United States

Regulation of chemicals, controls with respect to toxic substances

• International Drug Control could also become a redirect to Drug control law
  

Laurel Bush (talk) 15:37, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

• And so could Controlled Drug
  

Laurel Bush (talk) 11:10, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

Seems to be about time to start executing proposed changes
Laurel Bush (talk) 12:38, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

List of schedules for drugs and poisons is now a redirect
Laurel Bush (talk) 16:01, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Controlled Drug is now a redirect
Laurel Bush (talk) 18:00, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Controlled substance is now a redirect to disambig page Substance control
Laurel Bush (talk) 11:29, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

International Drug Control is now a redirect

Article move

I am about to move the article to Drug prohibition law because I feel now that its current position may represent some misuse of the term controlled drug
It seems to me now that a controlled drug is a drug which would be prohibited except that it is used under licence, for example, by medical professionals

Move done

Drug control law article needed?

Seems to me an article is needed at Drug control law, currently a redirect to Drug prohibition law
Many drugs outside the scope of 'prohibition' laws are still controlled
In the UK, even over-the-counter drugs like aspirin and paracetamol are subject to legal controls, and there are prescription-only drugs which are not within the scope the Misuse Drugs Act (the UK's 'drug prohibition' legislation)

Propose Merge

This article of low quality, and doesn't seem to have a distinguishing scope from Prohibition of drugs. I propose that it be merged into Prohibition of drugs and redirected to that page. Sondra.kinsey (talk) 22:48, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

This seems reasonable to me. Sizeofint (talk) 01:14, 13 May 2017 (UTC)

Absolutely, this is a terrible article, and many pages pointed here, like "international drug control"... which is quite scary. Will do the merger & redirection now. Teluobir (talk) 21:32, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
