Opioid are drugs like Oxycontin, Percocet and Vicodin. Fentanyl and Morphine are also common opioids with legitimate medical uses with Fentanyl being the strongest of them all with a very high death rate among users. They are highly addictive and are over prescribed across the country. The opioid epidemic has gotten so bad that the FDA has gotten involved in an effort to prevent new opioid addictions.

Opioid Manufacturers Named In Lawsuits
Currently there are scores of open opioid lawsuits across the country. Many are filed by victims of opioid addiction, the families of opioid addicted people as well as cities, towns and municipalities who have been decimated due to the effects exerted on their towns by the opioid epidemic. The defendants (those who the lawsuits are filed against) in these opioid addiction claims are:
Purdue Pharmaceuticals
The Sackler Family (owners of Purdue Pharma)
McKesson Corporation
Johnson & Johnson
Teva Pharmaceuticals
Cardinal Health
Amerisource Bergen
Mallinckrodt
These companies, as well as the Sackler family, grossly underplayed the impact opioids can have on individuals and as usual they placed profits over people.
