Closed petition: Fund support for veterans and patients facing prescription opioid dependency

Closed on

We call on the Government to fund dedicated, non-stigmatised detox and withdrawal support specifically for patients who have become dependent on opioids, such as Tramadol, through legitimate medical prescriptions.

Many people are trapped in a cycle of dependency, and want to access help but can’t. The Government must provide more funding to ensure more people can be helped.
