I agree fentanyl is awful. I have a friend in a hospital because of it.

And, when there is mass hysteria, there is often manipulation. This pharma tourism in Mexico is probably really hurting American pharmaceutical companies. If I were a pharma CEO, I would really love to see stories like this.

I live in Mexico and get prescriptions at Mexican pharmacies. This really hasn’t seemed like a problem at all.

I’m not even sure if most of the medications are manufactured here. There was a supply chain shortage for Clonazepam where it was hard to find for a while and when it came back the provider was different.
