Résumé : | Highly popular cold remedies could be banned from sale because of their link to a dangerous drug epidemic that has yet to surface in the UK. Rebecca Coombes asks whether the authorities are over-reacting. UK drug regulators are favouring making products containing the nasal decongestants pseudoephedrine and ephedrine available on prescription only to try to limit their use in the illicit manufacture of the class A drug methylamphetamine, also known as methamphetamine or crystal meth.
