Al-Khudairi said, during his interview with the “Blind Spot” program, broadcast on the “Saudi Arabia” channel: “Analgesics are drugs that relieve pain and heat, as they are a type of medicine that has diversified and has become one of the best-selling and productive industries.”
He pointed out: “America produces 76 billion analgesic pills a year, some of which are exported and consumed inside America, a large part of it.”
He continued: “Analgesics are a double-edged sword. They are good if used when necessary and when feeling pain or heat for a period of less than 3 days, or if they are prescribed by a doctor. But if they exceed that and are used on a daily basis, they have many side effects, including kidney failure and liver failure.”
