The drug is a key ingredient in cold and allergy medicines but its also used to make methamphetamine. Some state lawmakers like Representative Tony Shipley are reluctant to restrict the rights consumers. Currently drugs containing pseudoephedrine are kept behind the pharmacy counter and you have to show identification to purchase them.

LOUISVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A Blount (blunt) County sheriff's spokeswoman says autopsies will be performed on the bodies of a couple found dead in their home in Louisville (LEW'-ihs-vil).

Marion O'Briant told the Knoxville News Sentinel (http://bit.ly/14otRDJ ) the sheriff's office is not characterizing the death of Rebecca and Steven Adkins as a murder-suicide, pending autopsy results. She said a family member found the bodies Sunday night. Rebecca Adkins was 53 and Steven Adkins was 54. It wasn't clear how long they had been dead when found.
