Tranq, Fentanyl and More: How Big Pharma Is Destroying American Society

Dr.Docs' Take

This looks at the flood of tranquilizers, antidepressants and now fentanyl reshaping American life, and the pharmaceutical incentives quietly driving it. I drop the jokes when the body count is this real. The film's argument is that some of the most prescribed drugs on Earth come with risks the marketing works hard to blur. Follow the profit, watch what gets minimized, and read the fine print on the next miracle pill a lot more carefully.

This documentary investigates how the pharmaceutical industry has fuelled a crisis of dependency in America, from antidepressants and tranquillisers to fentanyl and the animal sedative known as tranq. It argues that some of the most prescribed drugs in the world carry devastating hidden costs. The film builds a hard hitting case against the power of big pharma. A disturbing watch on addiction, medicine and the business behind the opioid crisis. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
