So I'm sure most out there, especially opiate fans, know about recent occurrences in the pharmaceutical community. One of which being the new formula Oxycontin, which seems at least for now to be pretty damn tamper resistant. While I am sure this will be circumvented in some way, it is definitely going to have a big impact on the black market and demand for these pills, as most abusers snort or shoot their OC
Another is the change in Florida's system. I read somewhere that Fl will be updating their system and using a database like every other state, so the pill party will be ending shortly. Florida is quite well known for its easy accessibility to pain pills, and I highly doubt opiate users will just say "the government is right, let's stop abusing our opis"
Now I'm sure the cartels and drug organizations have been watching this transpire with wide open eyes and drooling mouths. The changes in the flow of opiates seems to beg for them to take over and move their product into areas and demographics that previously were satisfied before the systemic changes occurred. As I said, the people who are affected by this most likely aren't going to just sit down and give up their opiates. Also, while the tamper may be broken, it is also evident most drug users are not chemists or scientific geniuses. Most people who abuse drugs want the quickest, easiest, cheapest way to their high
My question is how do you think this recent shift is going to change the flow and availability of heroin. Many know that OC is referred to by many as "hillbilly heroin". In many areas outside of major urban settings, OC and pain pills are easier and cheaper to come by, and often outdo heroin in terms of basic pricing as well as potency(heroin being cut to hell the further from the source it goes). Do you think there will be an expansion in the dope market? Mexican heroin seems to be quite lucrative in this modern day, as evidenced by the drug war going on down there. It seems to me they'd be especially interested in expanding former OC territory. I'm sure as well that Colombian organizations have been keeping notes, and especially along the east coast and Florida. I could see a rise in heroin occurring very soon. Lastly, do you think if heroin is to see a surge, it will have any effect on current major heroin markets? I doubt it would myself, but it could lead to a rise in purity, even on a temporary basis so as to hook customers. Even in major dope markets OC abuse is still pretty common, especially among people climbing the opiate ladder. I could see a spike in potency occurring in order to hook new customers
Granted this is all pure speculation on my part. How do you think recent changes in pharmaceutical opiates to deter abuse will affect the heroin trade, if it does at all?
