- Researchers from the West Virginia Controlled Substance Monitoring Program determined found that younger age, bigger number of prescription volume, contact to opioids and benzodiazepines, and doctor and pharmacy shopping were all influences with larger odds of drug-related death.
- In 2009, the number of first-time, non-medical users of psychotherapeutics (prescription opioid pain relievers, tranquilizers, sedatives, and stimulants) was about the same as the number of first-time marijuana users.
- Prescription opioids should never be used with other substances that depress the central nervous system, such as alcohol, antihistamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, or general anesthetics, as this can increase the risk of life-threatening respiratory depression.
