    I think they are trying to shut down all the illegal pharmacies that are selling the drugs on-line...

    I have seen how easy it is...it lets you talk to a doctor first, and then this "Dr" allows the drug of your choice to be avaliable to you....

    It was about 7 yrs ago, that I had a prescription drug abuse problem....I tried to by bulk valium on line, a packet of 100... and was sucessful... I live in Australia, and the pharmacy was in America.

    Fortunately, customs in Australia stopped the parcel from getting to me....and I was notified that it illegal transaction..I had to pay a fine, or fight it in court if I wanted my "Bag of Goodies". I didn't take it further, and the tablets were destroyed at customs. I was fortunate enough to get a refund though, from the seller...

    So thats how easy it is, especially if you live in America...God bless

    No, the title and the opening paragraph clearly point the finger of blame at "the internet".
    Internet growth may be associated with spread of painkiller abuse

    For every 10% increase in Internet use, admission to treatment facilities grew by roughly 1% for narcotics, sedative hypnotics and stimulants, a new study says.(Lawrence K. Ho / Los Angeles Times)

    Add painkiller abuse to the list of vices for which the Web can potentially be blamed. A new study finds that admission to treatment facilities for prescription drugs has grown in step, roughly, with the spread of high-speed Internet.

    The article and the study it is based on is blaming the internet. How retarded. Where's the fall over dead smiley?
