Wait, so the FDA made a clerical-type error!?!
Huh. Who would have thought.

This has moved even slower that I expected. I am no longer confident that we will see OTC by the end of this year.

Here are some facts to stew over...

As of 2012, 46 people in the US died everyday from opiate OD.
So 17,000(est) americans have OD'd on opiates since the FDA proposed rule change in Feb '14. I wonder how many were prescribed post surgery, or for ailments that could have been treated by ActiPatch???
By contrast, there have been two (2) deaths in the US from Ebola in the same time frame.
Of course, opiate addiction drugs and opiate OD drugs are now also a multi billion dollar/year industry!!! Yay pharma!!!
