  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • The Center for Disease Control (CDC) is currently examining the prescription histories of individuals who have died from prescription drug overdoses in hopes of identifying markers that are indicative of people at risk of fatal overdoses; this information can be used to enhance the effectiveness of prescription monitoring programs nationwide.
  • The number of overdose death certificates that list poisoning by opioid pain killers has skyrocketed in the U. S. over the last decade; some researchers have estimated that these rates have risen over 90% within the last three years.
  • Fentanyl is commonly used to treat individuals with severe pain, to manage pain after surgery, and sometimes to treat people with chronic pain who are physically tolerant to opiates.
  • After methadone is ingested it is quickly distributed to body tissues where it is stored and then released into the plasma, a method of storage and release that allows the patient to remain comfortable, free from craving for an extended period of time.
  • A much higher rate of Ativan overdose occurrence are reported in senior citizens; this is likely due to the sedative effects of Ativan lasting significantly longer in elderly patients.
