Prescription Drug Rehab

Prescription drugs are an ever growing plague on mankind. Yeah, I know that sounds harsh but I can't stop but feel that way. Let's take oxycontin for example. This is a prescription drug that is on the rise every year across many states on the list of known abused drugs. Granted there are some people who need it, but truth be told many people are simply abusing the drug to get a similar effect to heroin. Then you have adderall and the other ADD / ADHD medications. These are essentially versions of legal speed (amphetamines) and is becoming a problem amongst high school and college aged individuals looking for an "edge" to study for tests. The only problem is these people are taking these medications for the wrong reasons and they wind up addicted to them.
Thankfully there is a prescription drug rehab that will help out individuals. Now if only someone would go after these doctors the world would be in a better place.

I know some people really do need prescription medications. HIV and cancer drugs are a good example of this. But then you have the type who tell their doctors they are "depressed" and suddenly they are getting whatever they want. It's known as "drug seeking behavior" and there are doctors who will approve the scripts if the person knows what to say. This is a major problem.
