How OxyContin Became the Most Dangerous and Hottest Selling Narcotic in History


Story at-a-glance

  • “OxyContin: Time Bomb” tells the story of how this painkiller became the most widely prescribed, abused, and profitable narcotic in history
  • Purdue Pharma ran an unprecedentedly aggressive marketing campaign to brainwash physicians that OxyContin was the new “miracle pill”
  • In 2007, Purdue pled guilty to deceptive marketing and was fined $600 million, but six years later, FDA allowed them to release a new version of the drug
  • OxyContin is a gateway drug to heroin, leading millions down the path of heroin addiction, methadone dependence, overdose, and death
