Concerns about reselling prescribed opioids
Description
May 11, 2023
Front-line doctors, addictions-care providers and public health experts are all raising concerns about one of the most-commonly referred treatment regimes for those addicted to fentanyl. The worry is the opioids being prescribed as a replacement -- are being diverted into the street market -- and fueling a domino effect of public health problems. Paul Johnson reports.
