Have you ever thought about where opioids came from? An opioid crisis is unfolding around us in real time. While a lot of global headlines focus on the United States, it's not the only epicenter of the crisis. In this podcast episode, Rachel and Chris follow the trail of another outbreak in addiction. The path leads them across continents and eventually full circle to where one of history’s most addictive drugs was first concocted.
Pain relief, dependency and life-destroying consequences – this is how opioids entered the pharmaceutical market and how they keep us hooked.
