        Does it really need marketing? Oxycontin is a household name like Coca Cola, I'm sure any doctor knows all they need to know about OxyContin.

        😂😂 Great PR move 🙄, but really Oxy’s demand is so strong any investment in a SF would be wasted dollars. This is a financial decision.

        I will assume that doctors will still get kickbacks or bonuses when they sell a certain amount.

        That’s illegal. If you have evidence of this, you have an obligation to contact your local states attorney.

        Like all things corrupt it’s not so easy to prove. Definitely something that’s been reported in the past so I assume it’s still happening.

        Like many other medical opioids. Stoned nation will never disturb rich elite.

        This is a first step in decreasing the opioid epidemic.

        Work on exposing laws that cripple Drs to say NO to drug-seekers. No Dr wants to deal with getting slammed with a malpractice lawsuit and a civil lawsuit and then deal with medical board. It's so much easier to keep patients happy. Medicine has become "customer service."

        Little late assholes. How about you set up treatment centers for people who’s lives you’ve devastated and show that you actually care about the harm you did when you lied to doctors that it wasn’t addictive?
