I am Iranian. My family and ALL Iranian families that I know are so anti-drug that they would make the Evangelicals look like the fucking Osbournes.

Don't generalize like that.

thats bad but it happens...I mean I'm in India and generally people don't smoke it here they eat it...but a lot of people come into the hospital due to opium stomach cancer...out in the agricultural areas people of low socioeconomic classes commonly do it..either that or ganja/bhung.

It is wrong because the kid is not aware of the dangers of smoking the drug. He can smoke opium as much as he wants and kill himself when he grows up. That would be his own choice.

Originally posted by DJ Shibby I fail to see how it would be unacceptable for the kid to smoke a pain reliever for medical reasons; if that's the only ghetto ass way they know to administer the drug, then who the fuck are we to act high and mighty because we do it with enclosed needle systems in "fancy" hospitals? Give me a break. If the kid's actually smoking to get high, then HOLY FUCK, what the hell? Buy the kid a fucking nintendo for fucks sake.

I can understand what the elder is saying in the video and it DEFINATELY isn't in the context of him administering it medically. Unfortunately this happens, but to narrow it down to being 'socially acceptable' in Iran is just false. Straight up.

Like fentanyl:

"* Alfentanil (trade name Alfenta), an ultra-short acting (5–10 minutes) analgesic,
* Sufentanil (trade name Sufenta), a potent analgesic (5 to 10 times more potent than fentanyl) for use in heart surgery.
* Remifentanil (trade name Ultiva), currently the shortest acting opioid, has the benefit of rapid offset, even after prolonged infusions.
* Carfentanil (trade name Wildnil) is an analogue of fentanyl with an analgesic potency 10,000 times that of morphine and is used in veterinary practice to immobilize certain large animals."

[Doses of fentanyl and its analogues are measured in micrograms; heroin is dosed by milligrams.]

Isn't Fentanyl a highly regulated drug ?

Props to you sir!

Education is the only solution, so I'm glad to see some of us are educated!
