access to prescription drugs like oxy, etc has alot to do with heroin use, esp. amongst younger people
they start off using pills and then switch over to heroin when they get hooked because the latter is far cheaper. Prescription drugs are heavily implicated in heroin addiction because popping a pill is more socially acceptable than injecting. Pills don't have the same 'junkie' stigma. Once they get hooked, though, they don't care about that anymore. Then they switch over to heroin
