I was a drug rep and know how pharma companies pushed opioids
I find it pretty terrifying how many people there are in here jumping to defend opioids. Seems kinda off-topic for an article about how predatory practices in marketing potentially harmful substances can be problematic.I mean, nobody is suggesting that opiods shouldn't be used to treat pain, are they? They are just saying that that misinformation campaigns run for the purpose of increasing profit at the expense of human lives isn't a great thing.
