THE OPIOID EPIDEMIC

The Rise of the Opioid Epidemic

Prescribed to treat chronic pain, opioids and opiates are among the most addictive substances. Between 1999 and 2019, nearly 500,000 people died from an overdose involving opioids, both prescription and illegal.

The rise in deaths began in the 1990s with an increase in opioid prescriptions. In 2010, the country saw a rapid rise in heroin overdoses. Then in 2013, there was a huge increase in overdoses from fentanyl, which can be manufactured illegally and mixed with other drugs. The potential for addiction and overdose remains dangerously high.

COMMON OPIOIDS

Types of Opioids

01.

Prescription Opioids

Oxycodone, hydrocodone, and morphine are prescribed for moderate to severe chronic pain. When taken for long periods, these painkillers carry a high risk of addiction.

02.

Fentanyl

A synthetic opioid used to treat and manage severe pain, mainly in advanced cancer patients. Also illegally manufactured and distributed. Fentanyl overdose has been on the rise across the nation.

03.

Heroin

A powerful, illegal opiate with a rapid euphoric effect. Highly addictive and sold on the streets. In the United States, nearly 40 people per day die from a heroin overdose.

MEDICATION-ASSISTED TREATMENT

Detox & Medication-Assisted Treatment

Medication-assisted treatment, or MAT, combines medications with evidence-based therapies. MAT is clinically effective in treating opioid use disorders — it aims to decrease overdose, increase treatment retention, reduce drug use, and improve survival rates. While not a cure, MAT is effective in managing withdrawal symptoms and supporting recovery.

Methadone

Attaches to the same brain receptors as opioids, reducing cravings and relieving the physical and psychological pain of withdrawal without producing an intense high.

Suboxone

A semi-synthetic opioid effective in treating withdrawal symptoms for opioid use disorder. Helps reduce drug cravings and can counteract an active opioid overdose.

Naltrexone

A long-acting opioid-blocking agent that blocks the brain from the euphoric effects of substances. Taken after detox as a helpful component of a comprehensive treatment plan.

Frequently
Asked Questions

01. What are opioids and opiates?
Opioids are a class of drugs that include prescription painkillers (oxycodone, hydrocodone, morphine), synthetic opioids (fentanyl), and illegal drugs (heroin). They are among the most addictive substances and are prescribed to treat chronic pain.
Opioids bind to receptors in the brain and release dopamine, creating feelings of euphoria and pain relief. Over time, the brain adapts and requires more of the substance to achieve the same effect, leading to physical dependence and addiction.
The opioid epidemic refers to the dramatic rise in opioid-related overdose deaths since the 1990s. It evolved in three waves: prescription painkiller abuse, a rise in heroin overdoses starting in 2010, and a surge in fentanyl deaths beginning in 2013. Nearly 500,000 people died between 1999 and 2019.
MAT combines FDA-approved medications — methadone, Suboxone, or naltrexone — with evidence-based therapies. It is clinically effective in treating opioid use disorders, decreasing overdose risk, increasing treatment retention, and improving survival rates.
Methadone reduces cravings by attaching to the same brain receptors without producing a high. Suboxone treats withdrawal symptoms and can counteract an active overdose. Naltrexone is an opioid-blocking agent taken after detox that blocks euphoric effects of substances.
Opioid withdrawal can be extremely uncomfortable and, in some cases, medically dangerous. Symptoms include nausea, muscle aches, anxiety, insomnia, and intense cravings. Medical detox under professional supervision is strongly recommended for safety and comfort.
Treatment length varies based on the individual, substance used, duration of use, and co-occurring conditions. Medical detox typically lasts 5–14 days. Ongoing treatment, MAT, and aftercare may continue for months. Some individuals benefit from long-term maintenance treatment.
