Addicted to OxyContin: A 48 Hours/MTV News Report

In a joint investigation with MTV, this 48 Hours broadcast focuses on Troy Swett, a young man who, ashamed of his $300-a-day OxyContin habit, confessed his addiction and underwent rapid detox at the Waismann Institute. The program also reports on 13-year-old Shauna Ulman, who, after taking what she thought was ecstasy, died of an overdose; it debates whether OxyContin is addictive when used as prescribed; and it tracks the rise in theft of OxyContin from pharmacies and patients. Some content may be objectionable. Produced by CBS NEWS. (42 minutes)
