If you could make 3 changes to your country's drug formulary

... What would they be? Please make this plausible, nothing like "Crack cocaine for narcolepsy" - all countries have different drug formularies and are a constant source of jealousy to others who lack such drugs at their disposal.

Also, remove one drug (of the same class) from the formulary to make room for the new one.

I'll start, for Finland

FINLAND

1. Replace ethylmorphine with hydrocodone
The niche of a moderately strong narcotic analgesic is empty. There's a huge leap from tramadol to oxycodone. Ethylmorphine is not too unlike codeine so it's not really necessary there.

2. Replace clobazam with lormetazepam
I've never heard of anyone using clobazam there and it's the second least prescribed after triazolam. Lormetazepam would function as an intermediate-acting strong hypnotic; otherwise we only have temazepam (which I don't find strong) and nitrazepam (which has a slightly longer duration than would be ideal).

3. Replace buprenorphine as an analgesic with oxymorphone
Buprenorphine may have its place in opioid replacement therapy, but it is also commonly used as an analgesic. It leads to long withdrawal symptoms, and feels horrible. Also, I wanna try oxymorphone. :D

NETHERLANDS

1. Replace tapentadol with hydrocodone
Same reasons above. I'd like a good medium-tier narcotic, but rather not dextropropoxyphene, meperidine or tapentadol.

2. Replace temazepam with tizanidine
Doctors are stingy with muscle relaxants as benzos are the only muscle relaxants they have available, and being addictive, are not so easily prescribed. Temazepam is also unnecessary in a formulary that has quite an arsenal of hypnotics: brotizolam, midazolam, loprazolam, lormetazepam, nitrazepam, flunitrazepam...

3. Dextropropoxyphene for oxymorphone
'Cause one sucks and the other is supposed to be tits.
 
UK

introduce other opiates! all we have is codeine, dihydrocodeine, tramadol and then its a jump to morphine or oxycodone!

also, replace ritalin or strattera (methylphenidate) with desoxyn. it has enormous therapeutic potential as a medication, yet its not scheduled for usage over here. it's such a damn shame.

at the same time, make dexedrine available in 10mg IR tablets and XR formulation too.
 
US

OTC codeine - An efficacious analgesic (I can't have NSAIDs anymore and am left with tylenol), and antitussive for those who can't have DXM (so they don't have to go to the doc to get an RX, which is damned expensive if you're uninsured). Replace random nsaid and loratadine syrup.

That's all I can think of right now (aside from extending mmj to the federal level, which is both medically and financially a sound decision), we're pretty flush otherwise. Maybe someone else will remind me of something.

LSD, DMT, Psilocybin, MDMA, Marijuana go down a schedule, how many i dunno but CI is ridiculous

actually while im on CI might as well make heroin CII, fuck with all the other CII opiates out there the only thing keepin heroin up there is the stigma

as above poster said OTC codiene should be more readily available, i know it is in some states but not Texas
 
US:
option for diamorphine maintenance WITHOUT the strict policy of European programs (replaces bupe and done maintenance with diamorphine).
diamorphine for sleep aid
diamorphine instead of nsaids
diamorphine instead of immodium
diamorphine for coughs
diamorphine for all script painkillers
diamorphine for hypersexuality disorders
diamorphine instead of alcohol for recreation
