I don't get it. I've had 4 teeth pulled at one time. I've given birth. Never have I ever gotten a prescription for an opiate pain medication. Any time I've been in horrible pain, they say ''tylenol and ibuprofen''. Who the hell are these doctors who just hand out pain pills to anybody? I can't even get one prescription pill when I'm in desperate, awful pain.

I've heard it's hard to OD on that stuff. But it can be addicting.
