A perscription for stellar rankings

Tennessee ranks No.1 in morphine and codeine use, No. 2 in hydrocodone, No. 3 in oxvcodone, No. 4 in meperidine, and No. 6 in fentanvl, according to this info-packed, but easy to understand map from the Rob Curley crew at the Las Vegas Sun.

I’m sure these stellar rankings are included in the state’s economic development and tourism pitches. Don’t you?

* Rankings are based on state per capita use in 2006.
