Basically some company invented oxycodone as a painkiller. It has some side effects to it and can be addictive.

They advertised this drug heavily, made doctors overprescribe it, had people take too high doses for too long. When people suddenly lost their prescription or couldn’t afford it any longer they were hooked and had to buy cheaper opiods.
