Abstract: There is no question that America is experiencing a horrific opiate/opioid epidemic whereby thousands of people are unfortunately dying, and the rate of people seeking treatment is at all -time high. One major problem can be linked to the fact that legal prescriptions for powerful opioid analgesics reached 297 million in 2016. One company that manufactures Oxycontin generated $3.1 billion in revenue in 2017. Moreover, that deaths from prescription drug overdoses have been called the “silent epidemic†for many years.
