26-year-old Singaporean student care teacher helps husband overcome prescription drug addiction via Telegram sellers.

26-year-old Amy, a Singaporean student care teacher, is helping her 26-year-old husband overcome prescription drug addiction. He began abusing painkillers in 2019 and lost his job. Sellers on Telegram deliver unlabelled cough syrups, painkillers, and sedatives to his address. At least six groups of self-proclaimed pharmacists operate on the messaging app, contributing to the growing trend of prescription drug abuse among young people.
