Here in the Southeastern USA, on the Atlantic Seaboard, between Atlanta Ga, and Washington, DC here are the rarest meds to locate in at least the past 10 to 15 years:
1. Middle to High grade Cannabis, as, no states in the Deep South, have Medical Marijuana, (like in California). It can be found
but is a big time hassle, having to network big time, to score, just a bag of weed for US $250.00 to $400.00.
2. Mescaline, (Peyote) I have not seen, since the middle 1980's.
3. High grade downers, are for practical purposes, extinct, with the withdrawal of Methaqualone, in 1984, Glutethimide (Doriden) in 1992, Nembutal, and Tuinal (the highly popular 3 grain rainbow capsules by Eli Lilly), both in 1999, and 100 mg Seconal,
are still manufactured legally, but I have not seen one since the middle 1970's, and the wholesale price legally, has risen,
from $25.00 US per 100 caps to over $400.00 average wholesale price to pharmacies, and I know many Psychiatrists, but
not one, who will prescribe any Seconals.
4. Sodium Oxbate, easily scored, 15 years ago, as a potent powder, or as the imported, outstanding "Alcover" liquid, made
in the tiny province of San Remo, inside Northern Italy, I have not seen since 1999. It has been replaced by the greedy,
pharmaceutical industry, by Jazz Pharmaceueticals, as "Xyrem", and, the price has risen from $140.00 a bottle, by a 300%
increase, and my own Psychiatrist, who has a license to prescribe it, refuses to prescribe it to me, in fact, he has stopped
prescribing it to all of his patients, the last I heard.
5. A radical change in my region of the country, is the drying up of all forms of Oxycodone. It was easily scored, as recently,
as 2009, but that has changed big time now. Those who are prescribed any form of it, from Percocet to Oxy Contin, need every pill they are prescribed, and thus, no more excess, for the street. My equal favorite, Dilaudid #4, has always been a
rare opiate pill, but, I got my first and only supply summer of 2013, after, a 25 year absence of finding this drug.
6. Of all things in my lifetime, I must have had over one hundred + separate prescriptions for Roche Valium, since the year 1971, and it was the easiest drug I have ever scored, cold turkey, walking into a MD's office, off the street, in the 1970's, but no more. Only expensive Psychiatrists will prescribe diazepam, Roche Pharmaceuticals, of Nutley, New Jersey, charge the
pharmacy's the ungodly price of $493.00 per 100 ten mg blue V-Cuts, and, Roche Valium was dirt cheap for decades, from 30 cents a pill, to as recently as US $100.00 per one hundred 10mg pills in the middle 1990's, but that is all over now. Plus, the
countefeiters, have matched the 1980's ridiculous counterfeit Rorer and Lemmon Quaaludes, the last 5 years they were made.
Even IOP's from the United Kingdom, to the Philippines to, South Africa, to Mexico, are deeply ingrained in mass producing
counterfeit, or at best, very weak diazepam, all over the world. It is contagious, and has now effected alprazolam. Even in the USA, the generics, vary greatly, in their strength, due to the unregulated "bioavailability" (cheap fillers and binders) that effect the potency tremendously. Inside the USA, Mylan and Ranbaxy are the weakest Generic Valiums.
I have personally been to Mexico, twice in the past 2 years, and, diluted Roche Valium, are everywhere, even sold, under the table by crooked pharmacy tech's. They look A+ real to the naked eye, but, believe me the strips, that are sold, going
rate $US 4.00 each, are a rip-off. Roche has a plant just south of Acapulco, and the real ones do exist, but, one must do their homework, and it is best to switch a USA prescription for Valium, for a Mexican MD to re-write the Valium to be filled, in a
Mexican pharmacia, plus to obtain a copy of the Mexican prescription, to covers ones arse. Mexican Customs at airports, go thru one personal effects, more stringently, than the USA x-ray security, the last two times I was in Mexico. Totally opposite, from the 1990's, in all states of Mexico.
8. Pentazocine Hydrochloride, marketed in the USA as Talwin NX, in Canada, in its pure tablet form, by Sanofi Aventis, as "Talwin-P" without the naloxone, in 50 mg caplets, and in about 8
other countries, in the modern industrialized world, such, as the UK, Germany, "Pakistan", Austria, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Cz Republic, Greece, Thailand, Belgium, and Italy, "also
marketed as Sosegon, and Fortral, and Fortal" is rapidly disappearing across North America,
Europe, and "especially Asia, the South Pacific Basin, actually being withdrawn, or banned by
legislation, in Japan, the latter and pulled off the shelves in France, (world headquarters for
Sanofi) and further withdrawn off the shelves by Krka Pharma, with IFET, the lone wolf mfg of
tablet for Greece. "Get it while you can, as all IOP's I am familiar with, no longer can get that
pain medication" It is not popular in the USA due to the deliberate reformulation in April of 1983, due to flagrant abuse, ER overdoses, and threats by the USA DEA to ban the drug, like they did
Methaqualone, due to high theft of the drug in pharmacies.
