The True Story Behind Netflix’s ‘Painkiller’

Painkiller is a disturbing six-part drama about the impact that the opioid epidemic had on the world when highly addictive medications became widely available and overprescribed by doctors. The series shows how Richard Sackler (Matthew Broderick) used the pharmaceutical company Purdue Pharma to turn the painkiller Oxycontin into a “blockbuster drug,” with little concern for the medication’s increasing availability on the black market. While Painkiller is a fictionalized depiction of the birth of the opioid crisis, it refers to many real events and figures, including the Sackler family. Sadly, Painkiller only scratches the surface of the damage that opioid abuse has caused. The series ends with a title card suggesting that approximately 300,000 people died in the last two decades from overdoses involving prescription painkillers like OxyContin, and Painkiller is only based on one of them.
