Explanation
It is always illegal to drive under the influence of any substance - including prescription or over-the-counter medication - if it impairs your ability to drive safely. Even if a doctor prescribed the medication, you are still responsible for knowing how it affects you. If it causes drowsiness, slowed reaction times, or poor coordination, you must not drive.
