        The people that are abusing these opioids make it extremely hard for the over a dozen or so different types of cancer patients to get their opioids on a strict regulated schedule in a timely manner_prescriptions that they need to have to extend their life and deal with real pain!

        Like gun violence, drug abuse is people driven! There are millions of people who use drugs, but doesn't abuse them.

        It's a damn shame that the MINORITY of people(those who chose to abuse/misuse opioids) r the ones responsible for this "crisis" and, ergo, making it almost impossible for those in true pain to get them..SMFH

        We have known opioids are addictive for 100+ years!!! Doctors have been trying to push them on me for 20 yrs! for every little thing! I have joint pain and I did not even take pain meds after hernia surgery! Do not be BRAINWASHED into believing you are too weak to endure pain.

        Lawsuit city. This is similar to the tobacco companies. Sounds like the tip of the iceberg as well.

        The year before my 19 year old brother, who’s prescription was doubled & not really explained to him, accidentally overdosed when he & his friends were experimenting. We acknowledge a certain amount of his responsibility in this, but thanks Purdue, for knowing & doing nothing.
