Or maybe have shops similar to liquor stores? Because, unless its been changed, I believe you can buy sudafed in small amounts over the counter anywhere, like at a 7/11 store.
Not anymore. Sudafed must be sold behind a pharmacy counter. To sell it you must be licensed by your state to handle controlled substances and register all sales with a government website and make a physical record of the purchase (be a licensed pharmacy technician). It's somewhat of a time consuming process. I believe most states are like this. It's purpose is to prevent people from buying a certain amount of pseudoephedrine to make meth with. It also helps the cops track down meth kitchens as everyone who buys it commercially has multiple records of their purchase both electronically and physically.
