I'm quite late to the party, but I've been watching Dopesick at the same time as reading Empire of Pain and I'm so ####ing angry. My cousin was prescribed Oxy after having surgery to repair a torn MCL after being caught in hot air balloon rigging and being dragged by a car for a couple of kilometers.
He was over-prescribed and fell into addiction. Completely ruined his life. And the god damn Sackler's did all of that by design.
