Nice deal. Meanwhile globalists who are ruthlessly generating insane power and trillions of dollars globally from "vaccine" NWO poison and their (attempted) "mandates" are already immune.

This is important news for /s/Worldnews or for /s/news

It's not yet updated here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purdue_Pharma

Seems the Sacklers managed to cut the settlement in half, while also arranging immunity, both of which were unexpected (per the Wikipedia updates). And I wonder if the Sacklers will be immune in non-US lawsuits.

that's fine it's the addicts fault if they took pills

[–]Rob3122[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (19 children)

How'd they get the pills?

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (18 children)

doesn't matter they chose to take them

[–]Rob3122[S] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (17 children)

It does matter because they were prescribed by doctors. So not only did this shitbag jew family the Sacklers create and distribute a drug that has killed 450,000 Americans...they had help from professionals in dealing it to their patients.

I've been prescribed Oxycontin a few times, and it's the best drug I've ever taken, in the medically effective sense. If you have severe pain, accept nothing less.

Only thing I've had that's stronger is Fentanyl, but that's way too strong to self-administer. In the hospital setting, you're totally out in about a minute.

Oxycontin itself is a wonder drug that should be praised to the heavens. People who abuse it and die are getting exactly what they asked for.

You are a moron if you think people like that get what they deserve. They sold Oxy for years under a lie that is was not addicting at all. Doctors would even push that shit on people with the same lie because they were getting big money for pushing the drug. Then you have people who lost insurance or were told they weren't able to get Oxy anymore for one reason or another and that wasn't their fault. After being so addicted even though they were told that would not happen, they had to look for other options, legal and illegal. Anything to get past the crippling withdrawals. There are so many different situations. Regardless, addict or not, no one deserves to die like that. And if you think so, you are an absolute garbage human being.

I've used substances in the past in excessive amounts, and for too long. What option did I choose when I finally realized? I stopped.

no one deserves to die like that.

Everyone deserves the consequences of their behaviors, whether good or bad.

And if you think so, you are an absolute garbage human being.

😭 ⬱ This is how bad I feel after reading your unkind words.

Ah, didn't realize I was replying to a skilled logician. Thanks for the endorsement.

There were quite a lot of people in chronic pain who were talking the dosage as prescribed by the doctor. The drug companies creating a campaign to treat pain with whatever it takes and this was pushed into the medical community and became the consensus that treating chronic pain meant as many pills as the patient needs so long as pain is managed. The drug companies had the same infactuation with he drug as you seem to have, but were also motivated by the high dosing turning into more sales and record profits and bonuses.

In their defense however, this was before the epidemic made it abundantly clear that this was no wonder drug and more like synthetic heroin.

Why would you be prescribed a pain killer like oxy "a few times" when it is meant for severe chronic pain and cancer patient not a few times in a persons life for temporary injuries? Fentanyl doesn't make any sense either and I have a hunch you are a regular recreational user at best but most likely a current or aspiring full blown junkie.

I have a hunch you are a regular recreational user at best but most likely a current or aspiring full blown junkie.

lol. If that were true, I probably wouldn't still have half a bottle of Oxycodone (5 x 325 mg from march 2017 - just looked), and possibly still one Oxycontin.

If I were going to self-treat with prescription drugs, I would choose amphetamine salts.

I was prescribed Oxycontin for some intense pain I had awhile back. An eye infection? Had a few episodes of eye and ear infections with severe pain back then. The Fentanyl was during my last surgery.

not a few times in a persons life for temporary injuries?

Why should people have to suffer though painful temporary injuries with no relief?

Glad you aren't having an issue.

Why should people have to suffer though painful temporary injuries with no relief?

Because oxycodone or lesser should be at least somewhat effective for pain like that and doesn't come with the same level of risk for dependance or of overdose as oxycontin or fentanyl do. Even Oxycodone is dangerous and addictive and should be prescribed sparingly. I am surprised your doc would prescribe that or pharmacist even filled it.

You are lucky you are so easily able to use meds like this. A lot of people get hooked over time, if not right away.

Be careful is all.

Just gotta say, anyone taking Oxycodone for enjoyment has some serious issues. Bleah. In my experience, it did little for the pain, and made me feel gross and ill.

[–]turtlew0rk 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

They don't make everyone feel like that. Some people took them for enjoyment and then became addicted. You wanna judge them? Go ahead. But lots of people became addicted because they needed them for pain which they have now recovered from but they are now chemically dependant on them as a result of their treatment.

It killed that many?

Sacklers weren't doctors so do you really mean to blame them? I get it they're rich and jewish so fuck them but let's blame them for something actyually bad. These pills help people in pain that's why doctors prescribe them. People that abuse them usually buy them off the street. But that's on them. What happened to personal responsibility. This isn't like the vaccine where you're mandated to take it or you can't have a job or go in stores now. No one made these low IQ idiots take too much oxy.

[–]turtlew0rk 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

Its called liability. Their products caused damage they are responsible for.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

nah it's like blaming car manufacturers for drunk drivers killing people

don't want to be addicted to opiates? don't take them. Evil sackler family didn't force you.

[–]turtlew0rk 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

No it's not.

don't want to be sued for billions for being a large part in an opioid epidemic? Don't make billions selling an opiod that will cause an epidemic. Nobody is forcing them to.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

bad example cuz the pain meds do help people that have accidents or surgeries so it does have a use. If others misuse it it's on them

whatever happened to self responsibility. why do you need big govt to protect deadbeats and idiots, mostly black people.
