Forcing someone to start taking-then becoming addicted-to Opioids is so horrible: I’m speechless. I’m an addict in recovery and I’m speechless, far worse than killing a person, it’s close to rape, their life is ruined.
I'm in recovery too,but when I saw opioid crisis in Africa I was thinking on the line of oxy,Roxys something stronger than tramadol.. I don't see how they got addicted to tramadol.. If they had taken some oxys, roxys,opana,methadone they would really have some problems..
@@tech-x9455 They don't have any of the strong opioids available because the complicated bureaucratic procedures effectively prevent their import let alone local production. As of now tramadol isn't scheduled as strictly as the strong opioids but if it becomes - they will lose access to tramadol too!
Not true, indian pharmacists give heroin, morphine.and many other opioid, opiates and synthetic forms of with $ and no prescription. Search RU-vid -indian addicts pharmacy chemist or any relevant wording of.
It is easier to point the finger at Nigeria. It is the same everywhere else with a local twist. BTW some people would be queuing up to join Boko Haram just for the sole perk...Tramadol
I'm assuming you live in the US?I'm in UK,is there really a big difference with branded medication,and off brands in America?not really come across that here,medication wise
@@karmaflage6305 i was born and raised north of Detroit Michigan in the states. But I'm currently working in Ontario Canada close to my native American reservation which is in Canada but on the border with Michigan.. 90 percent of my family is within 2 hours from me here which I like.. but yeah I'm a unionized laborer for construction and my coverage through my hall which is green shield covers the cheap version of tramadol which doesn't agree with my body.. I take them for my migraines and partially for my back and knees. But most of the time when it wears off whatever was hurting hurts even more . So to me I don't take them unless it's a last resort... weirdly enough opiates work on my migraines which I've had plenty of docs tell me that it's not a prescribed way to deal with the headaches but I've went to a neurologist and confirmed when I was about 17 that they were migraines.. sucks cuz my Jon is outside and I also run heavy equipment which are very loud so if I get one at or before work that would mess my whole day up..and I'm not one to take days off. Thanks to my time in the army I've gotten used to showing up no matter what cuz to not show up for duty means your a.w.o.l which is not good so it didn't matter how bad off you were you still showed up everyday.
Tramadol isn't an opioid, opiate or any relation to such chemical but replicates the chemical structure of an opioid and therefore is a synthetic opioid and the body has certain pathways that drugs take in the neurological system. So it replicates the same chemical pathway that any opioid takes. This Tramadol won't give you an addiction like heroin, Oxycodone, methadone etc. Tramadol isn't like Methadone which is a synthetic opiate, different again to an opioid. Tramadols worst impact on the body is when it is taken in unison with a nervous system medication such as Pregabalin. This can cause serious long-term effects such as: epileptic fits, seizures and related medical conditions.
This isn’t 100% true. Tramadol is a semi-synthetic opioid (like buprenorphine, autocorrect made me edit this). The BELIEF was that it was less addictive than other pain killer, hence it’s schedule 4. But what has been proven time and time again is that with consistent use, you suffer the same type of withdrawals as it works on the Mu-opioid receptors. In reality the only reason it was believed to be safer, is because it’s so much weaker (about 1/10 the strength of oxycodone).
@@BigBBigTrees 'bupe' has 4 very distinct forms, 1. Pure chemical 100% Buprenorphine, 2. An added chemical naloxone to stop addicts injecting 3. A film form to stop addicts diverting especially in a prison or rehab and 4. The latest form of a wafer. Tramadol has no Opioid or opiate and is a chemically replicated form of such drug, you do not have an Opioid or Opiate withdrawal when taken of Tramadol and therefore is only chemically engineered to take the same pathways to trick the brain. Trust me I was on it and not one doctor knew what it actually was. Try using Pregabalin/Lyrica and Tramadol. It causes the brain into seizures and can kill, then use any Opioid or Opiate and you'd never have the same chemical reaction in the brain.......
@@BigBBigTrees I just want to reiterate,.I used 400 and more mg a day and never went into withdrawal, I had worse withdrawal from Pregabalin 600mg per day...
@@masterphotronics.670 That’s what’s referred to as a “subjective experience” because literally the National Library had dozens of articles with tramadol withdrawals being virtually the same as other opioids. There’s a video on YT about using Imodium for tramadol withdrawals, the guy literally talks about running through all his toilet paper. I’ve literally heard the exact same stuff your saying about Kratom too because it’s “not a TRUE opioid”. But again people find themselves struggling to come off because the way it activates the receptors.
So, are the drug companies going to offer billions in settlement to Africans like they just did to Americans? Especially the Indian government that permits the flow of those counterfeit drugs into Africa. I don't think so!
They only put paracetamol/acetaminophen in opiate pain medication to act as a deterrent to abuse the stuff. They do it so you'll probably have to take a dangerous dose of the stuff in order to get a high.
Reporter: where it comes from? Authority Officer: Its come from INDIA 🇮🇳 Conclusion. India needs to stop being a producer and distributor of these things to the whole world, especially Africa don't be a destroyer of human civilization
I wanted to listen to this , but when i heard the word, lagos is “polluted , populated and poverty stricken” . I knew how inaccurate this would be! No, thank you .
I don't know where you've got this from, but be assured your claim is 1000% false, since there's no a single West African fighting a war in East Africa - or Somalia and Ethiopia if think you've more chances to be correct!
By the way, tramadol is a pain killer,it doesn't give you any "trip" like other opioids, but it gives you pain, when you get off of it. So it's just the beginning. Sorry to say that.❤
