My opinion is that benzos are the only psych. meds you could sell like coffee over the counter, coffee which is a psychotropic substance. Sometimes people come to the hospital with coffee toxication first believed to be amphetamine.
They could place the benzos next whiskey or next bonbons.warm regards
