Taboos are bullshit. Either something is a clearly articulated, written, rule with an enforcement mechanism, or it's fair game.
Prescribing doctors are responsible for the opioid epidemic. Doctors failed in their duty of care to patients. Doctors massively overprescribed, failed to track their patient's medication usage, and failed to spot addictive behaviour. Why aren't we holding them responsible? Simply because that's hard to do?
