With the push from drug companies selling millions of oxy pills to druggists who then pushed them on customers creating more addicts, people who don't abuse drugs got screwed. Legitimate need for drugs like codeine for pain from things like sciatica and other painful issues has hit a wall with doctors. They only prescribe aspirin, Motrin or Naproxen which really doesn't help with real pain. I have a bad knee and my doctor told me to just take Motrin which doesn't help at all. The only thing that helps is half a pill of Codeine. I'm not an addict, as I only take maybe one half pill a week, but doctors assume every one of us is a pill popping addict and refuse to help with pain management. The quality of these drugs isn't the issue. The freak out by national doctors over a situation they caused is the real issue.
