Ohh it's an opioid derivative. I guess it's a good thing that that thing hasn't snuck into here yet. Looks like it's a strong kind if it can cause that many deaths
I think the big problem was it was promoted irresponsibly.
That's a given to any form of drug though. No drug is ever properly advertised
Don't the people in charge of the regulatory agencies notice that this is a PROBLEM??
There's the non discrepancy law but then big companies are so sure nobody checks the labels and ingredients list so it goes unnoticed anyways. The only way ingredients ever get noticed is when it undergoes testing (our sector) but there are cases where we are put to risk because the company is big. It's happened a lot in my experience 🤣
Yes, the pharma industry is certainly "dirty". What a shame. It has the potential to help so many people.
Lol they still are. And probably could help more without the threat from such big companies
