[quote=Anonymous]To those saying it’s the patients’ fault or the doctors’ fault- read the evidence on this! The marketing machine led by the Sacklers was insane and filled with lies. For a comparison, see the UK, where opioids were expected to be a huge crisis because typically things follow the US, but have not been because the marketing was not the same and doctors do not routinely prescribe them. Anecdotally, I had a minor procedure a few months ago that the surgeon told me would only be mildly painful and treatable with tylenol. When I checked into the surgery he had prescribed OxyContin for afterwards, and I asked why since he has said it wouldn’t be painful. He said, “it doesn’t hurt to have the option!” I did not take the prescription and I did not need it at all. Tylenol absolutely sufficed. Ridiculous that he wanted to prescribe it..[/quote]
