DICTATE ALTERNATIVES FOR DANGEROUS DRUG
The people in West Virginia have taken a good step. The Senate
majority leader introduced Senate Bill 617 to add Oxycontin to
Schedule 1 of the state's uniform controlled substances act.
I challenge the members of the Missouri House and Senate to do the
same. There are other equally effective pain medicines for those who
need them. Isn't it time we took away legitimacy from this narcotic
that has hurt so many people?
