It's the decongestant pseudoephedrine. It is now sold from behind the counter only. You must present an ID and fill out your name and address when you purchase it. There are limits to how much you can buy.

I believe its Pseudophedrine. Its still sold over the counter. But they do need to verify the people buying it. (A lot of drug addicts use it to make illegal drugs.)
