A shocking trend is spreading among teenagers: deliberately overdosing on over-the-counter medicines to induce hallucinations, known as "OD (Overdose)." In the middle of this controversy, so-called 'warehouse-style pharmacies' are emerging as an easy new source for bulk purchases.
On March 19, 2026, the 'Health & Finance' YouTube channel operated by Channel Aha uploaded a segment from episode 1805 of the morning show 'Happy Morning' addressing the issue.
The video spotlights how teens can easily buy medicines through warehouse-style pharmacies and calls out the social risks. In particular, lax age verification and the ability to buy in large quantities are drawing major backlash.
The segment points out, "Because warehouse-style pharmacies let teens pick out and bag products themselves, cases of buying multiple medicines at once and then misusing or abusing them are on the rise."
An expert leading the discussion warned, "This isn’t just minor misbehavior—it can quickly escalate into a broader social problem," stressing the urgent need for countermeasures. Viewers are urged to stay alert through the video.
