  Hard to turn in prescription opioids when those who need them can't even get them. Leading some to other means for relief. Ex: illicits/suicide. It's illicits killing people. Majority of deaths regarding any opioid meds may largely be due to the lack of of these pain meds!pic.twitter.com/z3f5OlrWBa

  More Hype... No one has pain meds to return, because all pain is being under treated. But yes,I will be sure to drop another few pounds of anti depressents or anti seizure meds given for pain that don't help. Waste

  Is this what you and government officials are shooting for? More people wanting to more easily obtain meds used to die with dignity instead of pain meds to help us LIVE with dignity? HOW do you sleep at night? https://cergm.carter-brothers.com/2019/10/23/death-maybe-a-doorway-to-a-pain-free-existence/?fbclid=IwAR2N18-aPFB2_6zdbbOjxVY6caL00PSvCrTVV2i5RAfuZsqRKxR0MOZ0bhA …

  At this point, w the building that's happening here, a person would be crazy to turn in any leftover pain meds! Instead, but a lockbox & put the key in a heavy necklace so when the hospital &/or pharmacy 'too conveniently' runs out of pain meds after invasive surgery...
