DeWhiner hasn't mentioned anything about the stimulant (meth and cocaine) issues since being governor of Ohio either. š¤·š¼āāļø. opioid=$$$.stimulantsā $$$
Those fighting the Kratom ban in Ohio should see if this doc is still on the med board for Mike DeWine. Itās a relevant conflict of interest when it comes to why they may want a complete ban. @ibdgirl76.

Just as another weird side note. During the months of Nov 2024 thru Feb of 2025, the CDC has meth as being in more overdoses than fentanyl in AZ. Yet, the graphic with the two combined only allows me to see (click on) the fentanyl. Technically meth should be the highlight.

Question: Why would the CDC (SUDORS) overdoses for AZ involving meth and fentanyl look different than what the MEs in AZ report?

Bwhahaha! Gotten bit by the same beast you helped nuture and raise FED Up!. An opioid is an opioid which is also an opioid. Oh! And check this out. 21.8%? That's more than oxycodone and hydrocodone combined. Might be time to lay off of the anti-prescription opioids rhetoric.

It's never been an "opioid crisis". It's definitely not been because of prescription pain opioids. It's been a poisoning by the illicits, meth and fentanyl. (Source: Two AZ county Med Exam overdose reports that cover ~5 million people - more populated than 24 states.)

Proof the CDC knows and supports even more deprescribing of opioids. "Although opioid dispensing rates have declined. ". "high dosage (>50 MME/day)". "clinical practice guidelines could modify this. ". CDC -published June 2024.

Who's Really Funding the Suboxone Push?. People ask me all the time: "Why does it seem like every federal grant, every new program, and every.'opioid stewardship' initiative is really about pushing Suboxone?".

For the Sackler/Purdue hatersš.
@yancykm @Summerz4152 Heroin surged in early 1990s before OxyContin's 1996 launch, with ODs doubling to ~4,000 by 1999 (CDC/DEA). Purdue held ~3.3% market share by pill count (peak 2006-2012), though 16% by MMEāflawed metric ignoring individual factors. Methadone topped OD involvement (~31% in 2009),.
