As of July 1,Florida law has limited ALL opiod prescriptions in the state to a 3 day supply with an exception to 7 days for diagnosed chronic pain.

The majority of users are legitimate. Why screw them over?

because Opioids!

I hope every one of these legislators contract a disease that causes chronic pain for the rest of their miserable lives. Damned drug warriors are freaking sadists. If you withheld pain medications from Prisoners of War, you’d be in violation of the Geneva Conventions, but witholding the same medication from veterans is just good policy according to all the idiots in office.

There is no opioid crisis. There is a Fentanyl crisis. None of it has anything to do with prescription opioids, but that’s never stopped a good campaign issue. None of these measures address the illicit drug that is killing tens of thousands. Go after China, Mexico and the gangs who are cutting drugs with the equivalent of cyanide. Leave the poor suffering people their efficacious medicines.
