Such programs should consider reimbursing claims for controlled prescription drugs from a single designated physician and a single designated pharmacy.
- In 2005, there were 224,000 drug overdose deaths and 38.2% of these were caused by opioid painkillers.
- OxyContin can contain between 10 and 160 milligrams of oxycodone in a timed-release tablet. When compared to the five milligrams of oxycodone in Tylox it is not surprising why this prescription medication is so widely abused.
- While a person who abuses prescription drugs expects specific effects to take place they may not anticipate the side effects of the drug they have taken. If they take OxyContin they know it will stop any pain and create a sense of euphoria. They may not factor in that it also causes extreme drowsiness and slows their breathing; possibility to the point of death.
