Because it is funny. The idea that abuse resistant opioids are not only a societal need but becoming a requirement is funny. The other day I believe Ivory posted thread after thread of various government agencies looking to mandate the use of abuse resistant products when available and equivalent to the current medications.

If you have two pills that work the same and one can be abuse to get "high" and one that is abuse resistant, which one will get prescribed?

And the company is moving forward with Bio-equivalency trials and/or 505(B)2) trials now.

Even the smaller generics like Hydromorphone has a massive market.

Elite is looking to develop a line of abuse resistant meds and have been working on it for some time
