Zohydro: The New FDA Approved Painkiller

In a few weeks, a powerful new opioid painkiller called Zohydro is expected to hit the market. According to reports, this easily crushed capsule will contain up to 50 milligrams of pure hydrocodone, that is 10 times more hydrocodone than a regular Vicodin. Although it was a landslide vote to keep it off the market, the FDA is moving forward in approving this drug for use. Many organizations have stepped forward voicing their concern for making such a powerful drug so readily available.
