| Subject: Thank the statists: Poor OZschwitz pensioners forced to sell prescription drugs to make ends meet Sun Jun 08, 2014 8:36 pm | |
| Aussie pensioners struggling to make ends meet are selling their prescription medication to junkies and drug dealers, with some painkillers fetching up to $4000 a box.
Queensland doctors have warned that dealers are also targeting vulnerable seniors, some who survive off a $766 fortnightly pension, and have been approaching them outside pharmacies, the Courier-Mail reports.
The most sought-after drugs are opioid pills MS Contin and OxyContin, and Fentanyl patches, commonly prescribed for chronic pain and cancer care.
Hervey Bay GP Dr Ken Treichel says he's banned six elderly patients from his surgery in the past year for selling their medication.
"It's absolutely rampant," he told the newspaper.
"I actually see people (selling). I've seen people walk up to them, bring the money out and do the deal, standing in the car park."
