Maintenance tasks

• Listed   (blank): |legal status= has regular text input.
• Listed *: |legal status= has "Rx only" or "OTC". Output is edited. 'Rx-only' or 'OTC' is a very general statement. Maybe the input could be more precise (see {{ Infobox drug}} documentation).

• For all countries and institutes listed here: |legal_XX= should have a valid code from the listed options only. All descriptive text should be added in |legal_XX_comment=. If this causes a problem, please report at this talkpage.
