@BlanksSlate@notjessewalker …pathologizing all drug use, but some Nanny State restraint in RXing opiods doesn't strike me as draconian. -
@ChMadar@notjessewalker mandatory min. sentences. State legislators know better than pain specialists? I don't think that's good policy -
@BlanksSlate@notjessewalker But would all restraints be "blanket"? If pain specialists are gladhanding unnecessary opioid RXs in cahoots… -
@BlanksSlate@notjessewalker …with drug maker (thru shared $$ incentive) as is increasingly reported, their expertise is open to question. -
@ChMadar@notjessewalker how drugs are prescribed is wise and useful. But the gov't reax is typically DEA, not NIH, which is my problem -
@BlanksSlate@notjessewalker I hearya–best to keep health issues outside DEA pruview. So you'd be cool with NIH guidelines on opioid RXs? -
@ChMadar@notjessewalker Within reason, sure. I think Drs should have freedom to deviate for exceptions, but yes better practices are needed
