Please help save lives!
By signing this petition you are asking government agencies to institute safeguards and laws for ethical evidence-based prescribing of opioid narcotics and for social responsibility, accountability and transparency of the Pharmaceutical Industry. Often the real risks of prescription drugs are unknown until it is too late. For the last several years we have witnessed an epidemic of death and addiction as a result of misinformation and the overprescribing of opioid narcotics. Patient safety must come before drug industry profit.

I have spent the last few days vetting legal language for a formal briefing document to be submitted to the oversight committee. This report focuses specifically on the failure to disclose long-term risks during the initial prescribing process. I am now coordinating with two independent medical analysts to ensure our evidence base remains airtight before the next outreach phase.

BIG PHARMA IS KILLING US. PUT PEOPLE BEFORE PROFITS FOR ONCE.
my brother is gone because of this. doctors just kept writing scripts like they were candy. enough is enough.
Profit shouldnt be the priority when lives are at risk. greed is destroying families everywhere.
transparency is needed immediately. patients deserve the truth about what they are putting in their bodies.
This hits home so hard. The system is completely broken when a doctor gets kickbacks for pushing pills on people who are just in pain.
