FDA sued over failure to ban painkiller
Comments
To: Food and Drug Administration-
The Public Citizen who joined your medical advisory panel are a bunch of morons!
How can they even think that Darvon is a problem!
They are the same idiots that are allowing Roxicodone and Fentanyl Patches to destroy our society! These are the most addicting drugs I have ever seen! They have destroyed families and caused so many deaths. They have brought out addicts and drug dealers to rob drug stores. We have never had this problem before. I'm 54 years old so I have been around awhile.
I have been prescribed Darvon and Darvocet since I was 15 years old(knee injury). I since have had other physical injuries and am 100% disabled. I have learned to tolerate pain but when it gets real bad, I need my darvon/darvocet. They work on the pain, not a high to make you forget the pain like other prescription pain killers. And they are on the lower end of prescription pain killers.
As for the Roxi and Fentanyl Patches, I am qualified to testify of their deadliness. My fiancé who lived with me for 9 years and died December 16th, 2008 was prescribed both of these monstrous drug addicting substances. The drug companies are the drug dealers which you allow to bring pain and torment to our families and friends. You have allowed them to make our loved ones addicts. You have allowed them to have these drugs placed in their possession for them to control their dispersal. Anyone on these drugs are addicts! You don't ever allow an addict to dispense any Roxi or Fentanyl Patches. you never should have allowed any dispensing of these drugs. If someone is in that much pain, they should be in a hospital and any dispensing would be done in a controlled environment.
All patients who are on Roxi and Fentanyl Patches should be entered into Drug Rehabs to work on eliminating their addictions to them and both Roxi and Fentanyl Patches must be taken off the market and out of our society! This is the RESPONSIBLE thing to do.
We are still waiting for the toxicology reports from the autopsy. It looks like my fiancé succumbed from these legalized poisons you have let loose in our society. It's pure madness what you allowed the drug companies to do and it must be stopped. There comes a time when you must admit your wrongs for the good of the whole. Now is the time.
It's also time to put responsible members into the medical advisory panel and eliminate the morons!
Leave the Darvon/Darvocet prescriptions alone. They are one of the safest pain killers I have ever taken!
Concerning R.Yanno comments. I agree totally with him. I am 67 years old and have taken Darvocet for 10 years. I have never had a problem with it. It helps my severe pain. When I have a time where my pain is less I may go weeks without it, therefore I am not addicted. My Doctor said I didn't get addicted because I take it as prescribed. It helps me when I have severe pain more than any other drug ever has. Three of my previous pain relievers sent me to the Hospital, by affecting my liver.I feel Darvocet is safe when taken as diredted. Please don't remove it, it gives me a chance to have a normal life.
I suffer from a chronic disease called intersticial cystitis. Darvocett is the only painkiller I can take that doesn't make me sick. I think with all medication, you must exercise moderation. i don't like to take narcotics to begin with, but when I'm feeling pain the Darvocett is the only thing that works for me. I don't know what else i could take that wouldn't make me sick. I certainly tried quite a few before being helped with the darvocett.
