With more patients abusing opioid products and associated deaths rising, the pressure to bring abuse-deterrent opioid products to market is on the rise. Example -oxycontin has been tamper proof for 3 years.

Unfortunately, the pharmacology change drives many to shift to heroin.

Some junkies get supplied by the dealer on the street corner and other junkies get supplies by the pharmacist in the store on the street corner.

They are all the same.

And Obama just let hundreds out of prison today, who WILL help to increase those numbers.

[King Moonracer]

I’m sure glad we let those illegal scum scurry across the border with bags of dope. I hope we start using armed drones against them.

RSBN will be streaming live and you need not have ROKU to see this...computer or phone will work great.

[BloodScarletMinnesota]

So that's how Crooked Hillary lost, a huge chunk of her base OD'd.

Oh well.

[mountn man]

I just heard that Obama pardoned 300 drug dealers.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Opioid bump.

More problems owned by the liberals . . .. The Drug Culture

[Rashputin]

Two interesting things about this, 1) why do the idiot MSM talking heads focus on limiting painkillers to people who need them but pretty much ignore heroin, and 2) why are we guarding opium fields in Afghanistan when under the Taliban that trade all but ceased to exist?

Most herion in this country was made from mexican poppies

Heroin deaths are like suicide, self administered and voluntary.I feel bad that a kid takes that first bite but after the third one he is no longer a functioning human being. and no longer has my sympathy. Same for meth or crack.

[Rockitz]

This just reinforces Obama’s decision to pardon so many drug pushers and cartel members so that the Heroin problem can go on unabated. /sarc

1. Years ago, heroin addiction and fatal overdoses were largely confined to members of the lower class. Now, it’s spreading like wildfire among the young, upper-middle class.

2. Many fatal heroin overdoses occur among first-time or casual users who underestimate the purity of the junk in circulation now.

I just heroin O.D.’d. just watched latest in the Underworld series. But that girl is HOT!

Note how they call them firearms, not guns.

Liberals love their dope and don’t wasn’t to ban it. The opposite in fact.

So call guns the softer-sounding firearms.

One of the major reasons to secure the border, most heroin comes over from Mexico and Trump has mentioned this, just not in the most pronounced way.

And people are mixing it with “fentanyl” (spelling) and that’s why it has turned so deadly.

Yes, they are being stupid at a usually young age; but we shouldn’t have heroin flowing in the way it is to begin with.

[uncbob]

How many died from alcohol related ?

[laweeks]

I’m not the slightest bit concerned about heroin overdoses. If they choose to use heroin, then the hell with them. For every one of their deaths, it’s one less drug addict to worry about.

Deaths by abortions of innocent children far, far exceed the deaths of these morons, but ya’ don’t hear anyone lamenting them. Goodbye heroin users, tah tah!

According to report in 2015, 13000 died. In 2014, 28000 died. Half as many died a year later so why does that make it an epidemic?
