[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The opioid epidemic, explained: https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2017/8/3/16079772/opioid-epidemic-drug-overdoses How America’s opioid epidemic began "The opioid epidemic began in the 1990s, when doctors became increasingly aware of the burdens of pain. Pharmaceutical companies saw an opportunity, and pushed doctors — with misleading marketing about the safety and efficacy of the drugs — to prescribe opioids to treat all sorts of pain. Doctors, many exhausted by dealing with difficult-to-treat pain patients, complied — in some states, writing enough prescriptions to fill a bottle of pills for each resident." Much more in the article.[/quote] As the saying goes, the road to he!! is paved with good intentions.[/quote]
