COULD VIVITROL HELP NKY HEROIN EPIDEMIC?
There's no magic pill to cure the heroin epidemic but judges in Ohio
think they may have found an injection that can at least put a big
dent in the problem.
Now Kentucky lawmakers will look at whether Vivitrol could work in
Kentucky, where it hasn't been tried in the legal system.
Hocking County, Ohio Municipal Court Judge Frederick Moses will talk
to Kentucky lawmakers on Thursday in Lexington about the success he's
had in his drug court with Vivitrol to help addicts kick the habit.
