Re: Danger of Opiate Abuse

This very interesting piece of research informs athletes that one of the most dangerous drugs of abuse on the planet's surface is useful to enhance performance. I hope this does not lead to any increase in the abuse of these drugs but fear the opposite.

I note that it was screened by an ethics committee.
