From: FAA 'Flight Check'
Default Reporting prescribed medications to the FAA

Pilots Hide Prescription Drug Use, Create Deadly Trend - News9.com - Oklahoma City, OK - News, Weather, Video and Sports |

From the article:
"On every medical examination, pilots are asked to list their current medications, so that these can be reviewed by the Aeromedical Examiner (AME) and/or the Aeromedical Certification Branch in Oklahoma City. The AMEs also review any pertinent medical history the airman provides, to include therapy for those conditions. Penalties and legal action are specified for falsification of the medical history form. The FAA does not have authority to subpoena medical records, so the foundation of the medical certification process is the truth and honesty of the airman."
