With Opioid Addiction On The Rise, FDA Issues New Guidelines For Labeling Painkillers
Faced with an all-time national high of opioid-induced overdoses, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) rolled out strict new guidelines for labeling addictive painkillers Tuesday afternoon. These new rules will require fast-acting opioid-based drugs, like OxyContin, Demerol, Percocet, and Vicodin, to come with a new warning about the serious risks of abuse, addiction, overdose, and deaths linked to the painkiller.
