慢性毒品/药品 vs 非处方药
The two are medical terms other than automotive ones.
Soft drug is a drug of abuse that is considered relatively mild and not likely to cause addiction(http://www.thefreedictionary.com/soft drug)
According to explanations in Wiki, it shall be 慢性麻醉药品/毒品(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_and_soft_drugs).
Unprescribed drug which is contradicted to prescribed drug, means drugs that are not prescribed by a doctor, which may translated as 非处方药.
