Controlled substances are drugs that have special restrictions on their prescription, sale, and use due to their potential for abuse and addiction. These drugs are assigned a schedule based on their potential for abuse and accepted medical use. The higher the schedule, the more restrictions are placed on the drug. Only certain medical professionals are allowed to prescribe controlled substances and there are limits on how often and how much can be prescribed.
