OC's are a prescription medication. Attalus or Willow might know better about the price, but I think they're like $2-4/pill (depending on dosage) w/ prescription. On the street they go for about $60 to $80 a pill if you're getting the high dosage ones. I have a cousin who I am sure is addicted to various pain medication -- OC's are her favorite by far. I took one once and was messed up, but not THAT messed up. I don't get it. It's nowhere near as powerful as LSD, but it is an opiate. From what I could tell, OC's could get you into trouble because you can semi-function on them, meaning you could become a "functional addict" who abused all the time without others knowing too much.

The thing about the OC is it's what pill junkies call a nerve pill -- the nerve pill/ muscle pill being an essential distiction it prescription drugs.

OC was on the cover of Time magazine in a 2001 issue (forget which one) as a big new drug issue to watch out for.
