Opioid Maker Gets Patents for Opioid Treatment (Hegelian Dialectic 101) HD

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/oxycontin-maker-receives-patent-for-drug-to-treat-opioid-addiction/ Purdue Pharma, the maker of OxyContin, has received a patent designed to treat opioid addiction. The patent, first reported by The Financial Times, is for a new and faster-acting form of buprenorphine. Buprenorphine controls drug cravings and is often given as a substitute to people hooked on heroin or opioid painkillers such as OxyContin. Buprenorphine is currently prescribed in tablets or fast-dissolving strips. The patent is for a "wafer" of buprenorphine that would dissolve in just a few seconds. "While opioids have always been known to be useful in pain treatment, they also display an addictive potential," the patent states. "Thus, if opioids are taken by healthy human subjects with a drug-seeking behaviour they may lead to psychological as well as physical dependence." https://www.patreon.com/zoonpolitikon or support me on Paypal via zoonpolitikon@mail.com https://teespring.com/stores/zoon-politikon https://www.bitchute.com/channel/zoonpolitikon/ https://www.minds.com/zoonpolitikon Psalm 23
