Getting him the script was quite a process. He can only use one pharmacy somewhere in the Midwest if I remember correctly. Very difficult to get unless you are narcoleptic, have a doctor who is a lawful prescriber and you can figure out how to order and pay for it.
Yeah, the distribution of Xyrem is extremely strict. Only certain certified doctors can prescribe it, and there's only one pharmacy that supplies it. They ship it directly to patients.
That's why I said it would extremely unlikley for an illicit vendor to get a hold of it.
If you're looking for a sleep med similar to Xyrem, you could try baclofen. Both GHB and baclofen are GABA-B agonists, which causes sedation. Baclofen is a non-controlled med used for muscle spasms.
