Cocaine is legal and schedule II here in the United States already. As is methamphetamine.

Yep, methamphetamine hydrochloride is sold as a prescription drug called Desoxyn.

We did a bunch of research on this when we started on amphetamines for ADHD treatment. Fortunately not meth, but dextroamphetamine.

Technically yes, but I think what most people think of as "legal" is rather different from "can be prescribed by a doctor for a legitimate medical use".
