Simply letting people die is not a sane solution to black market drug use. Drug distribution can be restricted without completely denying drug approval. Look at Xyrem for example.
- martinald 8y agoI think you're misunderstanding my point. It's not that people will go to doctors and use it recreationally instead of getting off the black market. I'm sure that will happen to a certain degree but as you say it's not a huge driver to restricting treatments. It's that millions of people will be taking it when they never would have before from a doctor, and it is definitely addictive. Drug companies have an insane incentive to down play/hide studies that show it is addictive.
