5) SCHEDULE 5 DRUGS

Schedule V

Main article: List of Schedule V drugs (US)

Schedule V substances are those that have the following findings:

1. The drug or other substance has a low potential for abuse relative to the drugs or other substances in schedule IV
2. The drug or other substance has a currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States
3. Abuse of the drug or other substance may lead to limited physical dependence or psychological dependence relative to the drugs or other substances in schedule IV.^[36]

No controlled substance in Schedule V which is a drug may be distributed or dispensed other than for a medical purpose.^[45] A prescription for controlled substances in Schedules III, IV, and V issued by a practitioner, may be communicated either orally, in writing, electronically transmitted or by facsimile to the pharmacist, and may be refilled if so authorized on the prescription or by call-in.^[44]

Drugs in this schedule include:

• Cough suppressants containing small amounts of codeine (e.g., promethazine+codeine);
• Preparations containing small amounts of opium or diphenoxylate (used to treat diarrhea);
• Some anticonvulsants, such as pregabalin (Lyrica), lacosamide (Vimpat) and retigabine (ezogabine) (Potiga/Trobalt);
• Pyrovalerone (used to treat chronic fatigue and as an appetite suppressant for weight loss);
• Some centrally-acting antidiarrheals, such as diphenoxylate (Lomotil) when mixed with atropine (to make it poisonous, if taken at euphoria-inducing dosages). Difenoxin with atropine (Motofen) has been moved to Schedule IV. Without atropine, these drugs are in Schedule II.
• Cannabidiol, only in a cannabis-derived pharmaceutical formulation marketed by GW Pharmaceuticals as Epidiolex. Other CBD formulations remain Schedule I, except for those derived from hemp which are unscheduled but still FDA-regulated.^[53]
