According his The Times profile, articles published by The Times and "elsewhere have led to Congressional hearings and changes in federal laws."[1] Pain KillerIn 2001, Meier began began investigating Purdue Pharma and OxyContin,[2] when it was still a relatively unknown drug made by a relatively unknown family the Sacklers, which includes Mortimer Sackler and his brother Raymond Sackler, their children and grandchildren — who were at that time "one of the wealthiest families in the United States".[3] In an August 24, 2001 taped-interview with three top Purdue executives, CEO Michael Friedman, Howard Udell and Dr. Paul Goldenheim, the executives told Meier that "they had learned of OxyContin’s growing abuse only in early 2000, a statement they also made before congressional committees".[3] a company that had undertaken a "massive marketing campaign", based on a "unique claim" for OxyContin, with FDA permission, that, "as a long-acting opioid, it might be less likely to cause abuse and addiction than shorter-acting painkillers like Percocet."[3] In 2001 he published A Wonder Drug's Trail of Addiction and Death,[4] A 2004 New York Times review of Pain Killer, described how "For years, doctors who prescribed OxyContin were told that the risk of addiction to the painkiller was less than 1 percent. Only after the drug had devastated thousands of lives was it revealed that this figure, touted as scientific fact, was based on a small study that had no relevance for the general public."[2] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{Cite news| issn = 0362-4331| title = Barry Meier| work = The New York Times| access-date = February 2, 2019| date = nd | url = http://www.nytimes.com/by/barry-meier}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Meier, Barry}}2. ^1 {{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2004/01/04/books/books-in-brief-nonfiction-715565.html |series=Books in Brief: Nonfiction |title=Pain Killer|first=Christine |last=Kenneally |date=January 4, 2004|access-date=November 21, 2018 |newspaper=New York Times}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/08/insider/i-thought-the-purdue-pharma-oxycontin-story-was-over-i-was-wrong.html |title=Every Time I Thought the Purdue Pharma OxyContin Story Was Over, I Was Wrong: Not only would a previously undisclosed prosecution report surface more than a decade after it was written, but as fate would have it, I would be in it |first=Barry |last=Meier |date=June 8, 2018 |access-date=November 21, 2018 |newspaper=New York Times}} 4. ^1 {{cite book |title=Pain Killer: A Wonder Drug's Trail of Addiction and Death |isbn=9781579546380 |date=October 17, 2003 |publisher=Rodale Books |pages=333 |first=Barry |last=Meier}} 7 : Living people|American columnists|American male journalists|Radical centrist writers|The New York Times columnists|Jewish American journalists|1949 births |
