HARRISBURG, Pa. - A narcotic painkiller that looks like a lollipop — designed to speed relief to cancer patients — is starting to show up in illegal sales with the nickname "perc-a-pop." The drug's ease of use and sweet taste have law enforcement officials worried about the potential for abuse.


No!! The hell you say! Abuse of a NARCOTIC ******* LOLIPOP?? No one could possibly have been expected ot see that one coming.


The attractive taste — described by the manufacturer as a "mild berry flavor" — makes abuse more likely, he added. Harley said each Actiq lozenge retails for $9.10. The street value of a perc-a-pop is $20.


Oh to be in that marketing meeting "Ok, we'll green light the narcotic lolipop, but the amphatamine candy necklace is out."

Well, we can bask in the consolation of knowing that all those abusers of the Codeine lolly will be awfully constipated in the the process.

Yay!

The discomfort of injecting yourself with a syringe doesn't seem to deter too many people from heroine use. Conversely, I'm not convinced that a sugar-coated painkiller would necessarily lead to increased abuse.


Although those "flavored malt liquors" seem to get a lot of people to drink that normally wouldn't.

I will sometimes have a Halls even though my throat isn't sore. I don't think you can compare heroin to codeine, I would say they are in different classes all together. However, what about a heroin lolly, I bet that would significantly increase the number of junkies around.

I think all consumer drugs that are abused should only come in suppository form. Although this might be construed as targeting the gays.

How about a heroin circus peanut? I bet we'd actually see a reduction in illegal drug use.

I'm going to defend this product a bit. No, not the street sales, ya silly gits.

Speaking as someone who has watched a parent go through multiple cancer treatments before dying, this actually seems like a good delivery system for a person who can't hold anything down.

Let's face it, do junkies really care that much whether they snort, smoke, shoot or suck their fix?

I can tell you why they have these Lollipops. (My wife used them before she passed away from Cancer 20 Months ago) If you have never had Cancer or been the primary care taker from a sufferer of this horrific disease I can see why you might scoff at the pain killer Lollipop. It was a life saver for my wife. She could use it just when she had pain without having to take a full dose of her other pain medication which made her a bit more than loopy. To make a long story short these Lollipops are a great pain management tool. If some stupid kid (who is going to use drugs anyway whether it is in the form of a lollipop or a **** on a stick) abuses it well that sucks but oh freaking well.

Are you always the only one who likes the taste of ***, as well? Because that's what circus peanuts taste like.

Sorry to hear that.

My dad died of lung cancer. He had pain killers that were easy for him to take and keep down etc, which helped him immensely near the end (staying relatively comfortable for someone who can barely breathe and so forth), but they were not lollipops. There are other ways to accomplish the same thing without making the drug into a popular form of candy.

Not buying what, that it'd be easier to get a kid hooked on painkillers with a lolypop than a pill?

Ever heard of candy cigerettes?

Correct, not buying that it's easier to get a kid hooked on painkillers with a lollypop than a pill.

Post the proof, then we'll talk.

The proof?

What, the double blind experiment where they test getting children addicted to pain killers with lolipops?

For **** sake it would be easier for ANYONE to get addicted to painkilers starting with a lolypop.

Post the proof that it's not then we'll talk.
