"I never thought a deck of cards could change the way we talk about opioids."

Our Story

Back in pharmacy school, I remember standing behind the counter one day and watching a patient in pain walk out empty-handed, frustrated, and defeated.

Not because we didn’t have their medication..

But because the fear and stigma around opioids made dispensing pain medication so complicated, so judgmental, that they gave up.

That moment stuck with me.

They weren’t just in pain. They were being made to feel like their pain didn’t deserve help.

"How Many Others Were Going Through The Same Thing?"

Heartbroken

How many others were falling through the cracks, not because of the medication, but because of the way we talked (or didn’t talk) about it?

How many healthcare providers felt so overwhelmed that they couldn't help all the patients they wanted?

Then one night, while playing poker, of all things.. I had a lightbulb moment.

What if we could use a deck of cards to.. 

​​Simplify, normalize, and humanize opioid education?

What if each card could teach something useful like.. ​​

Morphine equivalences, drug information, or plain old brand/generic names that we always forget?

Something you could hold, share, and use to start better conversations.
