Opioids – The Epidemic of Baby Boomers Hooked on Painkillers

Addiction, Health, Medicine, Self-Help, Sexuality

Studies have warned of an epidemic of people in their 50’s (Baby Boomers) who are addicted to painkillers. We talk to pharmacist Ali Mafi from Commercial Road Pharmacy about Opioids, their use, effects and addiction to these drugs.

We have a chat with Quit Victoria Director Dr Sarah White about nicotine and how it is used by 2 to 3 times more people in the LGBTI community. We also talk about the partnership between Quit Victoria, Thorne Harbour Health, Minus 18 and MQFF about the Keep The Vibe Alive Competition.
