Reply to comment by in-noxxx in Parents charged after toddler dies of fentanyl overdose by snuffy_tentpeg

What exactly would a mass forced suboxone treatment be? That sounds kinda insane to force meds on people. I’m all for offering free addiction medication I mean we spend way more on our tax dollars on the effects of addiction than if we just gave free medication but forcing people into treatment doesn’t sound great

I don't know, but I mean we got people injecting animal tranq mixed with fent into their veins. We gotta do something, forcing suboxone or methadone wouldn't be the worse thing.

MAT is great, very effective (Methadone and Suboxone aren’t the only ones even, so people should be able to find a med that works for them). The thing is people forget about the T in MAT.
