You fight your case, get your girlfriend to claim her legally possessed, lawfully prescribed prescription medication, and don't accept any plea bargains.

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. The big question is why were they in your possession.

You need to get an attorney and not talk with anyone about your case without him. Tell your attorney all the facts of the case and show him prof that the prescription was a valid prescription for your girlfriend. Also, show him proof that your girlfriend has access to your car.
