The fictionalised retelling about pharmaceutical company Purdue Pharma has shot to the top of Netflix's most-watched list, and viewers now want the Painkiller ending explained.
Painkiller is a harrowing account of the events contributing to the opioid crisis in America, following those whose lives were altered by the drug OxyContin. The show focuses on both the perpetrators - such as developer Purdu Pharma and its president Richard Sackler - as well as the victims, some of whom lost their lives to the drug.
