This just in
I was looking on the webernets and came across an article on oxycodone abuse mainly about oxycontin. One of the things Purdue is trying to do and i quote:
"The company has initiated meetings with the U.S. attorneys in Maine and Virginia and has also met with the attorneys general of Virginia and Maryland, and numerous other law enforcement officers, to combat the problem of abuse and diversion of OxyContin -- even to the point of supplying these officers with placebo OxyContin tablets so that they could engage in "buy and bust" activities."
So whoever said that Purdue doesn't make placebo pills (which i believed at first because it just brings up alot of room for human errors) was wrong. The webpage I got this information at is: http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/406808
Im really intrigued by this now and am going to do some more research and will update if there is anything more interesting.
Just my thought, but i would imagine any placebo would be an EXACT replica possibly with a bitter taste to try to replicate the OC as best as possible because if they give them to UC pigs to do busts, they want the buyer to think the pills are real just incase they do a taste test. Just my thoughts, but maybe its just a replica with asprin or tramadol in it.
