  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Ecstasy first became popular in the "rave" and all-night party scene, although use has now spread to a wide range of settings and demographic subgroups.
  • Both physicians and pharmacies are required to maintain careful records of prescribing information including quantity, frequency, and renewal requests because of the illicit diversion of prescription drugs such as OxyContin.
  • In 2007, hydrocodone such as that contained in Lortab was mentioned in 24,558 emergency room visits, 11,001 single exposures and 23 deaths according to The American Association of Poison Control Centers.
  • Methadone overdoses have skyrocket in the United States, because the drug is much cheaper and some insurance plans do not cover the more expensive prescription pain medications.
  • As with all drugs and prescription medicines, individuals who are not using Valium as prescribed are at risk of overdosing on the drug.
