While I'm interested in anything to halt or stop the opioid crisis, anything from the owners of OkyContin must be treated with a large grain of salt. OxyContin was nominally supposed to be a slow release low risk opioid for chronic pain sufferers. Not only has that not worked out so well, it's pretty clear that they understood the risks and basically straight up lied to doctors about the risks. They have the capability to create these compounds, but they also have very low trustworthiness.
