Are Officials Ignoring The Prescription Abuse Problem?

Saturday, July 31st, 2010

OxyContin, Vicodin, Xanax and Perocet – these are all popular prescription drugs that are abused on a daily basis by thousands of Americans. We know about this. It is in the papers, on the internet and all over the news. But if we are all aware of this epidemic why is it so hard to get anything effective done to stop it?

Sure there are prescription monitoring programs that more and more states are implementing, however what does that do to the people who are already addicted to prescription drugs? It does nothing. In fact, when the pills dry up addicts usually turn to heroin, which provides the same effect as OxyContin.

Narconon Louisiana is a long-term, inpatient drug and alcohol rehab that focuses on handling prescription drug addictions as well as heroin addiction.
