More details to this question:
I was arrested for possession of dangerous drug. My cousin let me use her truck to go to the store and her mom's prescription pills was in the car but I didnt know. I even let them search the truck not knowing her medication pills were in the car but for some reason they was in another pill bottle.

Get na affidavit from the owner of the car stating it was their car and their prescription. SHouldn't be a problem getting your case dismissed. Hire a respectable drug lawyer.

If the facts are as you say, the State will have an almost impossible time proving that you intentionally / knowingly possessed those drugs. Hire a lawyer to put together a packet of proof for the grand jury (or prosecutor) with the proof of ownership of the vehicle, proof of the prescription, statement of witnesses, etc. I'm betting this case will be dismissed if not no-billed.
