Deaths rise from addiction, misuse of painkiller patch Overdoses of fentanyl become more common as addicts chew, inject gel from patch made to ease pain for cancer patients By Jeff Douglas ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS -- Justin Knox bit down on the bitter-tasting patch, instantly releasing three days' worth of a drug more powerful than morphine. He was dead before he even got to the hospital.
The 22-year-old construction worker and addict was another victim in an apparent surge in U.S. overdoses blamed on abuse of the fentanyl patch, a prescription-only product that is intended for cancer patients and others with chronic pain and is designed to dispense the medicine slowly through the skin.
"I cannot tell you the amount of people I've seen and the creative ways they abuse this drug," said Dr. Scott Teitelbaum, director of the Florida Recovery Center in Gainesville, Fla. "Fentanyl has been abused for years. But recently there has been an increase. I've seen more chewing, squeezing of the drug off the patch and shooting it up."
Fentanyl, a synthetic narcotic, was introduced in the 1960s, but it was not until the early 1990s that it became available in patch form. Last year, the first generic versions of the patch hit the market.
At least seven deaths in Indiana and four in South Carolina since 2005 have been blamed on abuse of the fentanyl patch, along with more than 100 deaths in Florida in 2004. About a week after Knox's death in Farmington, Mo., in March, a second man in the same county was prescribed the patch legally and died after injecting himself with the gel that he had scraped from it.(snip)
How many overdose deaths can be blamed on cannabis?
If you wish to surrender your right to choose
the substance from which you are made then you
will certainly be all that they want you to be.
But, then you already are submissive to the nanny
state and bow to their unconstitutional aggression.
There is no enumerated power in the Constitution
which warrants the federal government infringing
upon the natural right to determine dietary intake.
In fact, it has always been the realm of the church
as dietary laws are extent there for many millenia
and in almost every religion. The Constitution
forbids the federal government from making any laws
respecting an establishment of religion. Such laws
have long been established and are not the purview of
the federal government. But, that is not the only]
Constitutional problem with the war on drugs because
we are not to wage war against our own citizenry
either. Furthermore, we are waging a terror campaign
against our own citizenry which far outweighs any
effort made in the USA by Islamofascists.
The war on drugs can be decribed as nothing short of terrorism. We have seen no significant results from the drug war, therefore, all of these violent home invasions are significant only for the terror which they inflict upon the populace in attempt to control their appetites.
The unlawful use of or threatened use of force or violence against individuals or property to coerce or intimidate governments or societies, often to achieve political, religious, or ideological objectives."--FBI definition of terrorism.
What makes anyone believe we can achieve peace or export
peace when in this free republic an individual may be imprisoned for possession of a flower from the garden of God because it may alter the thoughts in that individual in a manner deemed inappropriate by corporate pawns seeking to maintain the efficiency of their chattel?
