There are some old studies on opioid (prescription type meds) use in rest homes.

They found that most patients did not want to increase their dose of the opioid. They just didn't want to be cut off the meds they were given. It makes so much sence.

I'm to lazy to look it up.

I don't understand this all, or nothing mentality when it comes to drugs.

I truly feel the American Opioid crisis could have been less devastating if government provided patients/addicts with with access to the medication with limits.

Actually, bupenorpine would probally be the better drug to make available to anyone that wanted it.
