I think it's absolutely insane that Polyjuice is not regulated! We all know what this lead lead to, if not yet in the second book, definitely after the entire Barty Crouch Jr. disaster and even then it's still not regulated, which kind of freaks me out. Love Potions should also be regulated, and eww the imagination of love potions in Voldemort's hands is kind of scary! I don't think if Felix Felicis is monitored in the hands of Quidditch but just that it's generally forbidden to use these kinds of things as doping before an actual game, so I don't know if that counts as monitoring/regulation. In the end, Veritaserum just reveals the truth and doesn't actually do anything to those who drink it, in the sense of changing them or their behaviour. Sure, this can be dangerous as well - actualyl it can be pretty damn dangerous, but still, look at all those other potions that aren't monitored either.
