The Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970 is concerned with certain drugs called:

A) OTC drugs
B) prescribed drugs
C) generic drugs
D) controlled substances


D) controlled substances
This act is concerned with controlled substances. The other choices cannot be correct because OTC drugs are sold without a prescription, requiring no governmental controls except to regulate that they are safely manufactured with the proper amounts of approved ingredients; all prescription drugs do not fall under the heading of "controlled substances," which this act is concerned with; and "generic drugs" includes many substances outside the scope of those that are controlled by this act.
