Warren County government could join a movement to sue prescription drugmakers for their role in the opioid epidemic. The county Budget and Finance Committee met Thursday and listened to a proposal by Galligan & Newman, Attorneys at Law to file against manufactures for damages caused by opioids, which are pain killers such as morphine, methodone, buprenorphine, hydrocodone, and oxycodone. Attorney Michael Galligan presented committee members with a Centers for Disease Control map of the United States depicting how opioids have affected different areas of the country.
