Dr. Richard Sackler, The Mastermind Behind The Opioid Crisis Coffeeland: One Man S Dark Empire And The Making Of Our Favorite Drug

A Manufactured Epidemic

Through aggressive marketing campaigns and deceptive tactics, Sackler's company, Purdue Pharma, convinced doctors and patients alike that their new wonder drug, OxyContin, was safe and non-addictive. However, as prescriptions soared, so too did the number of people falling prey to devastating addiction.

OxyContin, marketed as a safe pain reliever, became a gateway to a national opioid crisis. The relentless flow of pills into communities, fueled by Sackler's greed, left a trail of shattered lives and broken families.
