Opiate

Drug that is used to relieve pain, cough and diarrhea. Opiates have become stigmatized for their ability to cause addiction and death from overdose. They are the most effective pain relievers and are now under-prescribed due to the "opioid epidemic" witch hunt. They may also relieve treatment resistant depression.

Dr.s would rather see their patients suffer with pain than prescribe an opiate.
