Dopesick on Disney Plus.

Anyone watching this? Oh my goodness I knew nothing about the going’s on in the states in the 90s. We’ve just started episode 6, & wow be prepared to be filled with red rage. This series is superb but extremely upsetting too.😢

Yes, I'm watching it too and had no idea either. Really shocking what they got away with without a care for who they hurt.

It’s good we watched the first two episodes.
You can still be prescribed the drug on the NHS.

Really enjoyed it, it's absolutely shocking how this went on and still goes on. It was very emotional and I cried at some parts as could have happened to anyone, that family have a lot to answer for 😡

Watched this week by week before Christmas. I'm currently watching Private Practice, the spin off of Greys Anatomy and one of the main characters Amelia Sheppard was addicted to Oxy. I'm sure there were many other storylines in TV and films that feature an Oxy addiction but we never realized just how awful and serious it was and the real life scandal and drama that they were mirroring. Its still going on, if you Google Perdue and Sackler family, the lawsuits and various academic institutions disassociating themselves.

Anyone interested in how pharmaceutical industry can market products may want to watch The Crime Of The Century.

theguardian/tv-and-r...of-the-century

Rofecoxib (Vioxx) worth a look also.

Finding out the story of Pandemrix may also be informative.

Thalidomide history is well known. Still in use today to treat cancers.

Just finished it. Can’t believe the corruption all the way to the top & that they still sell this. Unbelievable.

I watched it last week, I had seen snippets of the story in the past but didn’t know the details of how horrific it actually was.

It was a really disturbing tale of greed and desperation. They were literally making up science as they went along, to push their their product and were buying people off left right and centre.

So many lives, families and communities were destroyed, it was devastating.

I thought Michael Keating and the rest of the cast did a great job of telling the story.
