Facts
- In 2008, the number of individuals aged 12 or older who abused prescription pain relievers for the first time (2.2 million) was roughly even with that of marijuana.
- According to the 2009 MTF survey, past-year nonmedical use of Vicodin and OxyContin increased during the last 5 years among 10th-graders; and remained unchanged among 8th and 12th graders.
- One method of OxyContin withdrawal is to treat each individual symptom with a non-opiate medication; this is the most common approach in an inpatient environment. A medication is given for anxiety, another for nausea, another for diarrhea, etc. This OxyContin withdrawal method is less uncomfortable than quitting cold turkey, and is not prolonged through the use of substitute opiate medications.
- It is rumored that the abuse of "purple drank" (narcotic prescription cough syrup mixed with soda and candy) may have been abused as far back as the early 1960's.
