Hi, mostly pain relievers of morphine-like structure, tranquilizers, stimulants, and sedatives. Mostly young people take prescription drugs to experience desired effects. they are not aware of outcomes of such drug abuse. Dilaudid, Lorcet, Lortab, Oxycontin, Percodan and others are the most frequently abused pain killers, which can lead to euphoria and have stimulative brain activity. Xanax and Valium have calming effect but can be too depressive. Aderall, Concerta and Ritalin lead to increased brain activity, energy and alertness.
