I oppose this bill because Zohydro was approved by the experts at FDA, and its not for Congress to decide how it should be regulated. People should be allowed to decide for themselves. Of course there should be a clear warning about any drug's side effects, we should try to inform people as much as we can, however any adult person should be free to put in his body whatever he wants.

The bill prevents the FDA from approving it as a prescription drug. This has nothing to do with being "free to put in his body whatever he wants". It's whether FDA can approve it as a prescription medication or not.

And obviously the FDA should be free to do that.

This does not mean that this drug should be available over the counter without prescriptions.
