Hello, Mary! How are you?

That is what being on Schedule III means, it's been found to have potential for abuse and dependence. The Butalbital in it is a barbiturate.

But you do need to understand that most prescription drugs are considered controlled substances.

Is there anything else I can help with?

It is the same except it now has 25 mg of Tylenol less. The ratio of tylenol to the barbituate changed and that is what made it now a controlled substance. It's crazy!
