What’s in your medicine cabinet?

How Many Free Samples are in Your Medicine Cabinet?

Anyone who has treated drug addicts for very long knows about the dealers on the streets and in the school yards who give drug free samples to potential customers. The street dealer finds a potential client and hands them a sample, knowing that chances are, they will return. Other kids get their first free sampler from the dealer at school. Once the customer gets addicted and has to start paying there is trouble – that is when we see them at rehab.

When pharmaceutical companies give samples of Schedule II drugs intended for kids they are advertising for future business. A free sample of Adderal without proper drug education can leave a child wanting more of the high, without a real understanding that a continued yen for that high can get them strung out or in rehab.

Bravo to the physicians who are questioning the safety of this. Please continue to make your voices heard.

If you know someone who has had too many free samples and needs effective drug treatment call Narconon the New Life Program.
