@SpicyPurritos I take Adderall for #Sarcoidosis. The #DEA will not stop assaulting me. They declared I’m not allowed adequate pain relief because I need Adderall (schedule II) and now they’re taking that away. @RonWyden gave the DEA immense production quota power in 2018.

This disinformation has been widely spread regarding opioids & addiction, with little mention of their extremely effective & valuable benefit for pain relief. It’s going to take yrs to re-educate the nation to when someone says “opioids”, they don’t automatically think addiction.

It's pretty easy to convince people. Prohibitionists traded people's lives for money. It's demonstratable.

Here is the SMOKING GUN to prove civil rights violations - could support a class action lawsuit - but the community needs to stand up pharmaciststeve.com/42259-2/ via @Pharmaciststeve

AUTHORITARIANISM gatekeeping the under-class (ie not them, or the wealthy).

WHAT. THE. FUCK. HAS. THIS. COUNTRY. COME. TO !?!? #EndProhibition #EndStigma #EndAuthoritarianism pharmaciststeve.com/an-examp…

At one time it was medical common sense that a lifelong condition would probably require lifelong tx. No disease area apart from pain management spends more time discussing, researching and recommending tx reduction or cessation vs tx. Just look at the agendas of pain conferences

Actually you should be celebrating this, in virtually every case where legalization has taken place the use of cannabis by adolescents has gone down. It’s no longer the forbidden fruit it’s now Aunties nap medicine or dads bad back gummies. In thousands of years of human history we have tried to prohibit drugs many times and it always ALWAYS ends up in failure. PROHIBITION DOESNT WORK never has never will in a FREE society. Any society that accepts the affects of alcohol & tobacco can accept the affects of all drugs The CATO institute did a study on the world 15 years after the DRUGWAR ends and in every EVERY category there were improvements. Will there be some issues of course, WE’RE HUMAN, but everything is made worse because of PROHIBITION. I’m a pragmatic libertarian and realize if you can’t keep drugs out of prison, and you can’t, you can’t keep it out of a FREE society. Therefore we should do everything we can do to offer the safest, and best possible solution for everyone and legalization with regulation is the only way forward for a free society. Use tobacco as an example by educating the public and offering the safest possible method (vaping/ecigs) we are mitigating the greatest dangers (smoked tobacco) without creating the social dangers that prohibition creates. Prohibition doesn’t stop drugs or crime, it CREATES crime because only criminals control the supply & marketplace, and it only makes drugs into the strongest and deadliest concentrations for efficiency. Prohibition never works, time to legalize and regulate all drugs. And like I said I am only for the legal use for adults, not children or adolescents.

It’s that kind of a day. Andrew Kolodny shames people like me who inherited an INCURABLE rare disease that has NO humane non-scheduled treatment options. @NatlAssnAttysGn @CDCgov @60Minutes you are responsible for giving this misogynistic bigot horror show a podium and power.

Prescribing didn't cause the manufactured "opioid crisis", & not prescribing opioids only causes increased suffering & death for the ill, injured, elderly, & disabled, & drives PWUDs to ever more dangerous illicit substances. Not working out the way they STILL claim it is. Liars.

Because I was putting to kidney failure early in my treatment with this doctor because of her decisions, long before I lost access to my real meds I became a non-candidate for NSAIDs. She still recommended for the strongest dose of Aleve. I think she wanted me to die.😳

I don't think many will be shocked by this, just has been a strategy for decades :

I'm going to drop this here. We have until 6/12/23 to submit comments on this AI / #NARXcare #PDMP 👇 x.com/hope411adcock/status/1…

I once rewrote the Bill of Rights (the 1st ten amendments to the U.S. Constitution for our Canadian friends) as Shakespearean sonnets. I should try rewriting them as limericks.

“Wood said the DEA's biggest fear is patients turning to the street for medication, which is why he said the DEA, the CDC and HHS are working together to identify local providers who can provide adequate medical care for pts in their communities” #ORRPlies wbaltv.com/article/baltimore…
