Oddly, Tramadol ( which is a synthetic ) has addiction risk also. ( Frankly , tramadol has never done anything for me)
If Hydrocodone was sold OTC we would have tons of people functioning that cannot now. Once we get over the hysteria of the opiods ( that hep mankind) and quit fearing “abuse” , we will be much better off.
Millions of people have turned to street drugs, when their doctors have refused to provide pain relief that actually works.
