Lots of pill-shaped medicine already does. You’re supposed to swallow them immediately, if you don’t you often find that they are mixed with bittering agents (or just naturally taste bitter).
Where I live, cough syrup that might actually be dangerous (e.g. the purple drank stuff) is already prescription-only or fully illegal, anyway.
nah, 10 seconds in your mouth will loosen the coating, then you just wipe the wet coating off on your shirt or something and then you can crush the pill without worrying about the coating.
Sure, there are various ways to get the coatings off, although that sounds like a pretty shitty coating. The “better” pills are harder than that to defeat.
With that being said, it’s more about stopping a kid from stealing their parents pills to take to a party than stopping serious addicts from snorting pills. The kids are the ones who will OD
