chronic pain
"I think it's ridiculous  that uncle Sam would attempt to limit the use of this drug simply because people MAY form an addiction to it. Percocet is really a life saver because it's probably the only drug available to control chronic pain for those that suffer through it. It's like too many things these days where people will figure out a way to abuse something and then the powers that be limit it or completely outlaw it's manufacture and use for those that rely so heavily on it. Why should the innocent suffer simply because another person intentionally puts something in their bodies that isn't good for them?"
