Oxycontin problems? It's in the news
Posted , 16 users are following.
I won't leave a link here, but if you Google "Oxycontin LATimes" you'll see that Purdue, the manufacturer, lobbied/lobbies widely with U.S. doctors & surgeons to prescribe this to their patients. Because it does NOT deliver the 12 hours of relief as marketed, it is ripe for abuse. Even in trials 12 hour relief was not the norm, it was more like 8 hours. Doctors were just told to prescribe a bigger dosage rather than a more frequent one. Of course, the object of this deception was/is $$$$$$$$$$.
This is what son was prescribed postop, and I do remember it did not last 12 hours.
I'd be interested to know which painkillers hippies here were prescribed. Mahalo in advance for your informative replies!
