ihlr-28379	Lamkin, Matt	Drug Dealing and the Internal Morality of Medicine	2024	21	.pdf	application/pdf	9986	508	52	In concluding the Controlled Substances Act did not prohibit physicians from prescribing drugs to help a patient commit suicide in accordance with state law, the Court implicitly rejected the claim that legitimate medicine is limited to prescribing drugs for the purpose of healing.42 Hence, whatever the merits of this narrow essentialist account as a matter of medical ethics, this approach does not help clarify the scope of legitimate medical practice 40. Some have argued it is unethical for physicians to engage in these practices, even if it would be ethical for others to perform these same acts, because medical practice is limited to promoting patients’ health.	cache/ihlr-28379.pdf	txt/ihlr-28379.txt
