Prescription drugs become illegally possessed drugs when they are possessed by individuals that do not have a valid prescription for the drug, or used in excess or in a different way then what was prescribed by the medical physician. Some of the more commonly abused drugs are the mind altering drugs, which include:
- Medical Marijuana (weed, pot, bud)
- Oxycontin (Oxy)
- Codeine
- Steroids
- Xanax, Librium, Valium, Ambien
- Morphine

Alcohol is another mind altering drug that when possessed by someone that is under 21 years of age in the United States, including Miami, Florida, it is an adult crime by someone from the age of 18-20 for illegal possession of alcohol by a minor. When under 18 the possession of alcohol is a juvenile offense and handled by the juvenile courts. Sale or distribution of alcohol to minors below the age of 21 is also a criminal offense nationwide and enforced regularly in Miami, despite being considered a spring break destination for college aged adults yet to turn 21 years of age. Similar to Alcohol, tobacco has age restrictions to be 18 to possess and the possession by the minor, or sale or distribution to them, is a criminal offense. Adult crimes of sale to minors of this sort often arise out of secret shopping and purchases by the Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Control Federal Agency (ATF), which have serious consequences and can be charged as felonies, which Attorney Wichman has helped others with in the past.
