The same survey found that nearly all long-term users of these drugs started taking them after receiving a prescription from a health care provider. Many physicians and other health care professionals feel that such prescriptions are necessary to provide relief to patients experiencing severe pain, and they argue that addiction is rare when a patient follows instructions for dosage and frequency."

In 1937, drug company S. E. Massengill mistakenly used a toxic solvent in one of its medications, which resulted in more than one hundred deaths. To prevent such a tragedy from occurring again, the FDA became responsible for ensuring the safety of medications before they could be made available to consumers. In 1951, the FDA also became responsible for classifying drugs as “over the counter” (safe for consumers to buy and use without medical supervision) or “prescription-only” (issued only with a doctor’s permission). "
