Christian Teter interviewed for Seacoastonline story on decrease in pharmacy robberies

Christian J. Teter, Pharm.D., assistant professor, psychopharmacology, was quoted in a Sept. 29th Seacoastonline story titled "Maine battles back in drug abuse epidemic."

The story looked at the recent decrease in pharmacy robberies, citing addicts' switch from oxycodone to less expensive heroin, among other factors.

"For the user, the pharmacology of heroin and oxycodone is identical, said Christian Teter. ... Both are opioids, and both 'take away anxiety and pain and make you feel better,' he said. If one is cheaper than the other, the switch is simply made, he said."
