Zotsatira zaposachedwa zikuwonetsa kuti kumwa mankhwala osokoneza bongo tsopano ndi komwe kumayambitsa kufa kwa anthu aku America osapitirira zaka 50. Osati zokhazo, koma kuchuluka kwa anthu omwe amwalira chifukwa cha mankhwala osokoneza bongo kumatha kukhala kofika mu 2016, makamaka kuchokera ku mankhwala opioid monga heroin. Zachidziwikire, America ili mkati mwa vuto lowopsa la mankhwala.

Koma musanaganize kuti ngati mayi wathanzi, wogwira ntchito, kuti nkhaniyi sikukukhudzani, muyenera kudziwa kuti azimayi amatha kukhala osokoneza bongo, omwe nthawi zambiri amatha kumabweretsa mankhwala osokoneza bongo monga heroin. Anthu ambiri sazindikira kuti kumwa mankhwala akuchipatala chifukwa cha mankhwala enieni kumatha kubweretsa chizolowezi chomwa mankhwala osokoneza bongo, koma mwatsoka, nthawi zambiri zimayambira. (Ingofunsani mayi uyu yemwe adamwa mankhwala ochepetsa ululu chifukwa cha kuvulala kwake kwa basketball ndikukulitsa chizoloŵezi cha heroin.)

Monga vuto lina lililonse lathanzi, yankho la mliri wa opioid silowongoka kwenikweni. Koma chifukwa kuti chizolowezi choledzeretsa nthawi zambiri chimayamba ndikugwiritsa ntchito mankhwala opha ululu movomerezeka, ndizomveka kuti owongolera mankhwala akuyang'anitsitsa mankhwala omwe alipo tsopano kwa madotolo ndi odwala awo. Pochita chidwi sabata yatha, bungwe la U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) lidatulutsa mawu opempha kuti akumbukire mankhwala oletsa ululu otchedwa Opana ER. Kwenikweni, akatswiri a FDA amakhulupirira kuti kuopsa kwa mankhwalawa kumaposa phindu lililonse lachirengedwe.

Izi ndichifukwa choti mankhwalawa adakonzedwanso posachedwa ndi zokutira zatsopano (zodabwitsa) kuletsa anthu omwe ali ndi zizolowezi za opioid kuti asazizire. Chifukwa cha zimenezi, anthu anayamba kuwabaya m’malo mwake. Njira yobweretsera mankhwalawa kudzera mu jakisoni inali yolumikizidwa ndi kufalikira kwa kachirombo ka HIV ndi matenda a chiwindi a C, mwazinthu zina zazikulu komanso zowopsa, malinga ndi zomwe ananena. Tsopano, a FDA aganiza zopempha Endo, wopanga mankhwalawo, kuti amuchotsere pamsika kwathunthu. Ngati Endo satsatira, a FDA akuti atengapo kanthu kuti achotse mankhwalawa pamsika okha.

Ndikusuntha kolimba mtima kwa FDA, yemwe, mpaka pano, sanachitepo kanthu kuti amenye nkhondo yolimbana ndi chizolowezi cha opioid pofuna kukumbukiridwa kwa mankhwala chifukwa chogwiritsidwa ntchito mosayenera. Kupangitsa makampani opanga mankhwala kusiya kupanga mankhwala omwe amabweretsa phindu lalikulu, ngakhale ali pachiwopsezo ku thanzi la anthu, sikophweka nthawi zonse.

Ichi ndichifukwa chake komiti ya Senate ikufufuza zamankhwala osokoneza bongo kuti adziwe gawo lawo pamavuto adziko lonse. Ndipo ngakhale pali zochiritsira zothandizila mankhwalawa, ndi malo otsetsereka omwe tawatchula kale omwe ndi osokoneza bongo komanso kudalira, ndikofunikira kuti mudziwe za kuopsa kwakumwa mankhwala opha ululu, komanso kusamala ndi zidziwitso zochenjeza za kugwiritsa ntchito mankhwala osokoneza bongo.
