A) Schedule I drug gr gr




B) Schedule II drug gr gr




C) Schedule III drug gr gr




D) Schedule IV drug gr gr

gr potential with severe dependence liability. Schedule I drugs have high abuse potential
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




gr and no accepted medical use. Schedule III drugs have a lesser abuse potential than
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




gr schedule II drugs and an accepted medical use. Schedule IV drugs havelow abuse
