Prescription Drug Overdose

Nearly 40,000 people die each year due to overdose of prescription drugs. To deal with this overdose problem, including alternative treatment, treatment of remaining drugs and unused prescription drugs, and providing Narcan for those who are using prescription drugs. 58% of overdose is due to drugs. One person died: 10 people were hospitalized due to drug abuse, 32 were abused for drug abuse, 130 were abused prescription drugs and 825 were drug prescribers without prescription.

In 2015, nearly a year after the opioid over one third of overdose of benzodiazepine prescription medications such as lorazepam, we spent nearly a year. In that year, 8,971 people died. However, psychiatrists continue to prescribe these medicines "as needed" and encourage users to increase their dependence and dosage. Despite the number of deaths that have led to an increase in the number of fatalities, doctors continue to drive more medicines. It is known as a new "shadow epidemic" and gradually increases with the opioid epidemic, with opioid overdose over 30% also containing benzophen.

Inappropriate use and abuse of prescription medicine is a serious public health problem. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that the United States is on an epidemic of overdose mortality (1). The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that overdose due to increased non-medical use of prescribed analgesics, in particular, is the second leading cause of unintended injuries in the United States, exceeding the number of car deaths (2 ). A recent analysis of preliminary CDC data suggests that overdose may be a major cause of such death (3). This article uses the definition of drug abuse by the National Institute for Drug Abuse (NIDA). This is "intentional use of unprescribed medication, by methods other than designated, by experience or cause" (15)

Conclusion Investigation research is necessary to understand the various determinants of overdose of global prescription drugs. Several other countries require systematic and continuous collection of data on prescribing opioids and other prescription drugs, non-medical use of prescription drugs, and hospitalization for overdose prescription. Rare evidence of determinants of overdose suggests that research is necessary to inform environmental interventions that we can use to prevent overdose. Methodological issues for future research include strengthening the data collection method for unintended fatal and nonfatal overdose, as well as the history of drug use, the source of drug use (prescription drug), and overdose individuals Including the collection of more detailed information on demographic and spiritual characteristics.
