What is this weapon, that, according to those incidents reported to the FDA, results in hundreds of thousands of deaths annually?

Prescription drugs. This is not prescription drug abuse. These are drugs, taken as prescribed, under medical supervision. These are drugs created and marketed by some of the largest organizations in the world, with government approval, using every tactic associated with the tobacco industry and street drug dealers to get people hooked, often at a very young age.
