Why have quaaludes been taken off the market when there's other equally if no more addictive drugs?

History of Medicine: That is a question best asked of the fda, dea or a medical historian. Most of us here on this board entered medicine after this had occurred.

I love quaaludes: I'm with you - i used quaaludes in the 1970s and thought they were outstanding. I guess that's why they've been taken off the market. They're extremely enticing and beg to be abused. Maybe they should be legal. We'll have to leave that to the lawyers and politicians, i guess.
