Purdue should not be liable for idiots who cannot understand that taking OxyContin daily for a month will result in withdrawal symptoms upon cessation of medication. The longer the period of use, the more severe the withdrawal. It is an opiate, not some weird science fiction devil drug. If you want to punish the manufacturers of opiates that "have a high probability of being abused" like all opiates, you might as well sue the creators and manufacturers of Fentanyl.
Caveat emptor. Remember that concept? Or have Americans become so infantile and stupid that we need lawyers to protect us from our bad decisions?
The only difference between that product and generic oxycodone is the duration of action (the "contin" in the product name).
This is the only false claim Purdue made about the drug as far as I can tell. If a salesman told an MD that OxyContin had a low probability of abuse, or if the Purdue sales team incentivized MDs' prescriptions with cash or free drugs blame also the corrupt MDs who ignored what they should be presumed to know and began prescribing it instead of generic oxycodone or other opiates.
Alex Jones's loss is the direct result of the coordinated campaign on the part of the whore media and the state to have him broken because he is a high-profile threat to their propaganda stream.
