@BrandeisU This woman, a chronic pain pt, committed #SuicideDue2Pain after being cut off her meds. Since your illustrious 'Dr.' Kolodny blocks #cpp on Twitter bc our being 'very vocal' about the misappropriated @cdc @supportprop 'guidelines', ask him if THIS is "totally bogus"?
Since accidentally deleting my original pinned tweet, I'm attempting to replace as much information pertinent to #opioidhysteria & the mistreatment of #cpp as possible. Please add whatever articles/graphs/pics/comments/links you think are needed. Thanx. https://twitter.com/Chronic_FLKeys/status/1097061137751908353?s=19
The link above was immediately under the original pinned tweet. If you open it there is some of the lost information.
Reckitt Benckiser, whose spin-off company is now Indvior, created Suboxone. Indivior was indicted by the DoJ for a lot of the same things Perdue has been & has paid out the largest opioid settlement to date: https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-obtains-14-billion-reckitt-benckiser-group-largest-recovery-case
Andrew Kolodny offered doctors $10,000 incentives to become registered to Rx Suboxone. He also lobbied HARD at prisons for them to provide the medication to inmates. It's all here: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wired.com/2005/04/bupe/amp
"Doctors" such as this @supportprop member cause great harm to fellow human beings & attempt to dispell scientific knowledge by claiming anyone who takes pain medication is by default an addict. How is being in pain the same as #addiction??
In the tweet below, he claims people suffering from depression are too high risk to have their pain appropriately treated. There is a hard push among the #ProPainAdvocates to label those in agony with whatever mental disorder that they deem the "TRUE" cause of pain.
Law enforcement agencies nationwide have unfettered access to YOUR PRIVATE HEALTH INFORMATION, including past & current prescriptions. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.businessinsider.com/police-are-now-tracking-your-prescription-drugs-2017-8%3famp
The PDMP, whose ONLY supposed goal was to track & end "doctor shopping." It has been weaponized in unimaginable ways & is violating the #CivilRights of EVERY #AMERICAN! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.denverpost.com/2017/07/24/tool-to-help-police-in-opioid-crisis-draws-privacy-concern/amp/
If you think for one second ANY of the money being won from pharmaceutical companies in the Great Opioid Lawsuits is going to help addicts & their families, I have a helicopter to sell you: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.newsweek.com/joe-manchin-million-dollar-helicopter-opioid-money-1167813%3famp=1
Don't you think it's a bit odd that these lawsuits took off right around the time the money from the Tobacco Lawsuits started to run out??
