How did a tiny little pill shatter our family? When did we first begin losing Pat?\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThese are the harrowing questions that plagued Erin Marie Daly after her youngest brother Pat, an OxyContin addict, was found dead of a heroin overdose at the age of twenty. In just a few short years, the powerful prescription painkiller had transformed him from a fun-loving ball of energy to a heroin addict hell-bent on getting his next fix. Yet even as Pat's addiction destroyed his external life, his internal struggle with opiates was far more heart-wrenching. Erin set out on a painful personal journey, turning a journalistic eye on her brother's addiction; in the process, she was startled to discover a new twist to the ongoing prescription drug epidemic. That kids are hooked on prescription drugs is nothing new what is new is the rising number of young heroin addicts whose addiction began with pills in suburban bedrooms, and how a generation of young people playing around with today's increasingly powerful opiods are finding themselves in the frightening grip of heroin. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile many books a have tackled the topic of Big Pharma, drug addiction, and our increasingly over-medicated society, Generation Rx offers an entirely new look at what the prescription pill epidemic means for today's youth and the world around them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Erin Marie Daly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1619025531\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781619025530\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Catapult\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/09\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.90d","brand":"Erin Marie Daly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939261415679,"sku":"9781619025530","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1c9baf1a-c027-45d1-b5e5-1c2b336e0595.jpg?v=1681440455","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/generation-rx-erin-marie-daly-9781619025530","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
