What Are Some Signs of Perscription Drug Abuse?

Question by sarge: What are some signs of perscription drug abuse?
I have a friend, and I’m concerned he may be abusing pain pills. He’s constantly short on money even though he makes a decent living, and has had problems with pills in the past. What are some symptoms (physical) that may indicate whether or not he’s using again?
