To advocate for quality pain care through the Pain Foundation, ask if they are funded by Purdue Pharma, a criminally convicted pharmaceutical company for marketing OxyContin to physicians and patients as less likely to be addictive or abused. Purdue Pharma and its 3 CEO's Michael Friedman, Howard Udell and Paul Goldenheim wer criminally charged, pled guilty and were sentenced in Federal Court in 2007. Their actions have resulted in an epidemic of death and addiction of OxyContin in every state in the country. The "undertreatment of pain" has proven to make a greedy pharmaceutical company worth $10 billion at the cost of thousands of lives. The Pain Foundation being associated with convicted felons and its Board of Directors lends to a lack of credibility.
