OxyContin was widely prescribed for black lung disease patients (coal miners) and the grandkids found out what was in Grandad's medicine cabinet. Party time with Hillbilly Heroin.

There is NO WAY Rush Limbaugh was taking the amounts he claims to have taken (300 per day if memory serves). No matter how big you are the body just couldn't handle it. He was either part of a trafficking operation or his name was being used in such an operation.
