Do you think the charges can be dropped for possession of dangerous drug if they were someone else's prescription and I was unaware of them?

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.

In Texas, Yes they can use them to enhance if they are substantially the same or similar to the offense in Texas.

Should I turn myself in to the police?

Dont do anything until you talk to an experienced criminal defense attorney. If you find out that you have a warrant for your arrest, then you can turn yourself in but do NOT give a statement to police. Next time you "find" heroin (which didnt happen since people dont leave their heroin), leave it alone. Get yourself some help or you will get in more trouble later on.
