[QUOTE="Jeffwhosoever, post: 65068794, member: 250083"] You were suggesting that ERs hand out pain pills as their primary modus operandi of treatment. I pointed out that those on Medicare have a high rate of pain pill abuse. How to stop it? It's tough. Education and regulation is what comes to mind. Educate doctors about drug seeking behavior, and regulate it so it is harder to be abused. I know they just moved hydrocodone from Schedule III to Schedule II. As for regulation, when I was in Scouts, I always lined up the narcotics officer to come talk to the boys about it, and they did a great job. One of our parents was an ENT and was enamored by the presentation, because the officers brought in real confiscated drugs to demystify it a bit. But, I'm the last one to want to see people suffer in horrible pain. [/QUOTE]
