All recipes for meth contain ephedrine or psuedoephedrine. Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan recently announced
that the Methampetamine Precursor Control Act (MPCA) was signed into law. Psuedoephedrine and ephedrine are now classified
as "schedule V controlled substances"- meaning they must be kept behind pharmacy counter. It requires that all single
and multi-active ingredient products, tablets, liquids and gel caps be dispensed by trained pharmacy personnel. No prescription
is needed, however customers must display a photo ID and sign a log to purchase any of these products.
