Yes, giving prescription meds to others isn't a good idea. It's not legal, either (not that that bothers me all that much). But you do have to careful about allergic reactions. My sister had surgery and was given either morphine or a synthetic morphine (never got that part straight), and she turned into a paranoid screaming whacko, trying to climb out the window (3rd floor). They had an antidote for it, but they had to track her husband down to get permission to administer it.
One of the side-effects of the calming-type meds like Paxil & Prozac is shaking hands. ("No, Your Honor, I DID mean to shoot HIM, but I didn't mean to shoot the school and the old folks' home, too...") <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
