That is horribly inhumane. Just have each of them be forced to take the average prescribed dose of their product for one year, and then forced not to from then on.
But the entire point of OxyContin is to induce opioid withdrawals every single day by lying claiming that the release formula is effective for 12 hours, but making it cease dosing at 8 hours. Regular removal of opioid availability from a patient has the pernicious effect of creating a excessively of desire for a normalizing dose but removing all base levels to zero puts the brain and body through another cycle of low and high experience and so OxyContin makes immediate junkies out of everyone unfortunate enough to be prescribed.
I was prescribed it recently after surgery. Took it for around 5 days and then stopped with no ill effect (and several left). I don’t think your statement holds in the short term (and certainly not “immediate”), though over a longer period it seems to.
Possibly, but I have had Oxy prescribed and wasn't an immediate junkie. It worked for my pain is as much that I would pass out soon after taking one. This would have been in the 2008/2009 period, and my doctor was very careful with dosage.
Also note, I hated the way I felt while taking them.
Yeah Oxycontin was a 13th amendment violation.
And calls into question every number in Western Medicine.
