It hasn't done much of anything except put production into the cartels hands. Remember, in Mexico pharmaceuticals do not require a prescription -- you can order 300 cases of that stuff to your house (err, lab) and nobody will care.

I wouldn't be surprised if usage has gone up now that supply has gone up.
