The Epidemic of Prescription Drug Abusing in America

Prescription Drug Abuse in America
"Widespread use of opiate painkillers has primed a steadily increasing number of Americans for heroin addition. These opiate drugs and heroin have essentially the same active ingredient. Heroin is also easy to obtain and far cheaper than prescription painkillers."*
At the very least, 5.1 million Americans are addicted to painkillers, 2.2 million to tranquilizers and 1.1 to stimulants.**
We do not believe for a moment that the CapturedDiscipline(r) safe is the solution to the epidemic of prescription drug abuse in America, or the growing epidemic of heroin abuse throughout all social and economic levels of American society.
We do know that a significant percentage of our customers are using a CapturedDiscipline(r) safe to reduce their abuse of prescription drugs and/or heroin. We know that the use of a CapturedDiscipline(r) safe has enabled many of our customers to get themselves closer to quitting and closer to defeating a potentially fatal unhealthy habit.
