Brands > Opium Deodorized

Three years ago I was diagnosed with severe pan-ulcerative colitis and suffered immensely for 2 years. I was eventually forced to undergo 3 surgeries for a sub-total colectomy and the creation of a J-Pouch. The surgery went well, but due to some complications I still suffered from debilitating diarrhea. Nothing I took was able to help me until my doctor prescribed DTO (Deoderized Tincture of Opium). It's a medication that's extremely difficult to get because it's essentially pure opium and strictly controlled & monitored by the FDA & DEA. It is only manufactured by one pharmaceutical company, Marathon Pharmaceuticals and most smaller pharmacies don't carry it.

The drug is extremely potent and immediately gave me a new lease on life. I take a relatively high dose of it though, 20-25 drops 4 times a day. There really aren't many side effects beyond the fact that it will initially make you drowsy until your body gets used to it. It is supposedly also very highly addictive and you need to be weened off of it.
