Don't think this really has that much to do with US government regulations on medicine, how medicine is practiced, and the designation of which drugs should be issued by prescription.

They are one and the same. As evidenced by Paey's 24 year sentence.

The "war on drugs" to me anyway is more about government efforts to stop illegal drug use and how they've encroached on individual rights.

Exactly, and this include the zealous prosecution of prescription drug violations. The "drug war" encompasses all this and trying to make a distinction between Valium and Heroin is spurious. It's the same issue.
