Nearly all prescription medication contains some sort of adverse side effect, and it is always good advice to get used to the medication to see how it might affect your perception and judgment. Unfortunately, many individuals must take medication and drive to work, school, child care or daily errands. It is not uncommon that these medications might diminish reflexes or cause problems in perception.
Common medications that are often tied to DUI include the following:
Hydrocodone
Oxycodone
Ambien
Soma/Carisoprodol
Butalbital
