If someone says to you 'they're on drugs' what do you think of? Heroin, crack, ecstasy, cannabis, speed, cocaine? Probably one of the last thing you might say, after naming a dozen 'street drugs', is Nurofen Plus. As a nation we choose to ignore legal, medical drug addictions – or do we just not know they exist? Thousands of people in the UK are currently addicted to tablets you may think of as nothing more than a head ache cure. The question is, what can be done about addictions of this nature – should all potentially physically addictive drugs be made prescription only?
