This is what a local pain management clinic gave for the bulging disc injury sustained postpartum. A pain medication meant for cancer patients.
Taken orally, Opana is about twice as powerful as OxyContin, and the company says it is "indicated for the management of pain severe enough to require daily, around-the-clock, long-term opioid treatment."
Soon afterward, though, communities around the country began reporting abuse of Opana and even overdose deaths.
Opana also was a major moneymaker for the company. In 2011, for example, Opana generated $384 million in net sales for Endo, accounting for 14 percent of the company's total revenue that year.
The experience with Opana's reformulation may serve as a cautionary tale for the potential effects of "abuse deterrent" drugs.
