🤔 Drugs like fentanyl are called synthetic opioids because they are made in a lab. Not derived from a plant.

I get that. But that's one opioid, not opiods as a general statement.

Without God putting the poppy here we prolly wouldn't even be synthesizing that shit...

this some shit i would say back in the day to rationalize my my addiction. hope you’re doing good bro.

Every drug is good and has a use, in moderation.

Problem is humans don't know self control to obtain moderation.

Drugs arnt the problem. Drugs solve and help many things.

People are the problem, abusing drugs.

Go tell the mothers giving birth at your local hospital to go all natural and say no to the fentanyl drip directly to the spine....

Bet you won't. Beacuse I'm right and drugs are all fine and perfectly OK, in moderation, and you'll look dumb asf doing so...

Mic drop.

praying for your daughter

Your NPC behavior is showing.

Opiods where not the problem during your addiction. Your own behavior was. Period.

I'm sorry no one taught you better and you had to go through that...

But, much like a Gun....opiates, fentanyl, just sits on the table until the human makes a bad choice with it.

Stop blaming inanimate objects for....

YOUR BEHAVIOR.

*were

never said it wasn’t my fault. you’re projecting. just like a dictionary isn’t at fault for your awful spelling and grammar.

Name calling and grammer correction is the only thing humans have left when their beliefs are proven wrong and can no longer continue the conversation.

Ontop of that... I've been VERY clear throughout my time here on nostr that I do not have any education past 8th grade.... from being expelled...due to opioids... the 80mg purple oxys tbh...

Have a great day! 🤗

lol okay. just saying, you learn about grammar and spelling in elementary school.

Wow that's terrible

Wannabe grown man crying about NPC behavior because he's playing himself.

Hey... Let's just leave some fentanyl and a gun in a room with a toddler to see how that plays out.

Bringing up psychology clearly would just fall on deaf ears here. NVM the issues of crack babies (children forced to do drugs in the womb) that are born addicted.

*Roll my eyes*

How stupid.

People really think like this 😂😭

Opioids aren't the problem - people not condemning them are ("no one taught you better")

God gave us the poppy!

Wtf are you smoking bruh

Crack? Is that what you smoke? Crack?

And wtf

Act like a lady when you're on drugs! How dare you?! 😂😂😂

That's your vibes bruh

Omg GTFO

🤨 how many thousands of successful at-home water births happen every week?

Drugs are all fine?? Takes only 4mg of alprazolam or lorazepam to be lethal. Only 10mg of hydromorphone

Opioids are entirely man made. The entire drug class. Idk how else to explain this. It’s the same thing as saying Tricyclic Acids, or SSRI’s. They’re drug classes that are categorized by drug structure and function.

Wrong. Opioids as a class include natural or synthetic opioids. There are even endogenous opiods mostly produced by the human brain. It’s the reason the human body has opioid receptors.

You have an endocannabinoid system that has endogenous receptor sites for different psychoactive THC compounds. That does not mean that BHO is natural.

If you’re a actually a doctor that is slightly concerning

Opiods are a class of drugs that act on opioid receptors. There are natural and synthetic opioid drugs, and even endogenous opiods that act on said receptors. Endogenous opiods like enkephalins and endorphins are even blocked by opioid antagonist drugs like naloxone.

If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.

Naloxone is man made and I know because I run it by LCMS/MS. As well as buprenorphine and norbup. They’re all suboxone metabolites.

And… what does that have to do with anything? I said naloxone is an opioid receptor antagonist. Not that it was natural.

There’s no way you’re a physician but I appreciate the banter

I don’t appreciate the banter, or you telling me twice I’m not a physician when you’ve been factually wrong. Go fuck yourself, not in the nice way.

Opium opiate opioid are different words for a reason. If you think opiates and opioids are the same thing idk what to tell you.

Thanks doc!!!!

You’re arguing semantics in an area of medicine and pharmacology that is imperfect and not universally agreed upon. The class of drugs is opioid. Opiate is a less frequently used term that describes the naturally derived alkyloid from the poppy. In practice, we use synthetic, semisynthetic and natural to describe drugs within this class. Drugs like fentanyl are synthetic opiods, which as an anesthesiologist I use every day. Not sure what your background is, but it’s clearly not clinical medicine.

It’s imperfect but I’m factually wrong, right? The entire point was to say, opioids generally refer to opiate based compounds synthesized in a lab. Opium and opioids are different and you know that. That was the original point to the troll who initially commented. I don’t care what you think about my background because similarly to “you” I was a pre med student and I have a significant background in toxicology. If you can’t handle my heat you have to leave my kitchen because I am COOKING young man

Also I agree with nostr:npub1csamkk8zu67zl9z4wkp90a462v53q775aqn5q6xzjdkxnkvcpd7srtz4x9 - the opioid epidemic created by the medical and pharmaceutical industries is certainly one of the worst plagues humanity has ever brought on itself. Highly recommend Dreamland by Sam Quinones

Better synthetics

😘

Comme la plupart des 6 créations de l'être humain... J'ai dû noter que vous aimez lire je vous conseille de lire le 3eme Chimpanzé de Jared Diamond. Je travaille dans le domaine de la dépendance liée à toute forme de toxicomanies, des types de types de handicap (moteur visuel, psychique, mental, cognitif, maladies invalidantes...,) je ne peux qu'être humble vis à vis de l'humain sans jugement car nous sommes tous susceptibles d'être confrontés à des risques qui impactent également nos proches. Lorsque je travaille dans le Secteur où le Client est Roi, je n'étais pas en accord avec mes valeurs, j'ai me réformer pour m'orienter ce domaine plus accès à la Dimension Humaine. Mon rêve serait de créer des structures de types dans chaque à travers le Monde Carpe Diem
