Cal, a 17-year-old senior, started taking a

friend's prescription painkillers to help deal
with some back pain. Cal died suddenly after
mixing over-the-counter cold medicine and the.
friend's painkillers. Cal's father said that Cal
wasn't aware of the dangers of prescription
drugs because they were legal drugs.
Is this an example of proper use or misuse?

Misuse. The drugs were not for her. They were prescription drugs for her friend
