        Please take time to read the lengthy article to see how pervasive this entire ecosystem was to fuel the addiction. The Sackler family, medical industry, pharma salesmen, zealous marketing campaigns, flawed studies and lies about how dangerous and addictive Oxycontin is. Scary.

        “A recent exposé by the LA Times revealed that the first patients to use OxyContin, in a study conducted by Purdue, were ninety women recovering from surgery in Puerto Rico. Roughly half the women required more medication before the twelve-hour mark...study was never published.”

        This is a helluva article. “While the Sacklers are interviewed regularly on the subject of their generosity, they almost never speak publicly about the family business, Purdue Pharma...a privately held company...that developed the prescription painkiller OxyContin.”

        Perhaps the Mellon family can sue the Sackler family. How medieval.

        The real problem is not the manufacturers but the doctors who write the prescriptions. Why is so difficult for people to understand? Let’s see, because American people really are clueless, and it’s safer for public officials to blame production than upset the medical world.

        Their museum should be shut down by the Smithsonian. They are not a respectable family.
