With multiple drug dealers on the Eastern Shore and in every community and Doctors using this drug along with all toxic drugs as a maintenance therapy and not cure the problem you will always have this problem. This is a multi-million dollar business supported by the FDA, AMA and drug companies and people don't realize these organizations are not willing to cut their tax dollars and their income. You never see these organizations support alternative treatment with herbs, vitamins etc. A good example is Glucocil for type 2 Diabetics instead of toxic drugs with sever side effects. It does the same as Victoza.

What herb or vitamin is going to cure a heroin addict with a 5 baggie a day habit? or the person taking pain meds for 20 years for nerve damage but still works and functions normally.

Fentanyl usually cures them the first time they try it.
