As with any new topic/drug, it's a nightmare just figuring out to which forum to post this, so let's just keep our fingers crossed that this is posted to the appropriate one.
Endo seems to be busy developing two new formulations of their existing painkiller (and a strong one at that): Numorphan.
I will post the link to an article I found on it. I hope it'll spark some lively discussion as well as curiosity and, hopefully, more information in the future.
Meanwhile, let me pose a few questions/ideas for discussion:
1) With the possibility of Numorphan eventually becoming more widely available, does anyone think that comparitively weaker drugs such as OxyContin will attract less media scrutiny? And therefore be easier to obtain from the doctor?
2) Will Numorphan become the new "hillbilly heroin"?
3) Will all painkillers be exceedingly tough to get, including OxyContin, Numorphan, and even Codeine?
4) How much more restrictive can the existing rules get?
Here's the link to the story I saw:
