Nearly Half Of Americans Know A Person Dependent
On Drugs, Survey Finds

• With approximately 50 percent of the USA
  population on prescription drugs and 10 percent
  on antidepressants, it is clear that things are
  going seriously wrong with human health in the
  modern world, notes engineer-turned-author
  Steven Magee, who has written several books on
  the related subjects, including Health Forensics.
• The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Centers
  for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the
  federal government have taken several steps to
  address the damage done by the ongoing opioid
  epidemic that took over 33,000 lives in the
  United States in 2015. As drug overdose deaths
  continued with an upward trend during the year,
  more than half a million individuals perished to
  drug overdose between 2000 and 2015.

Nearly Half Of Americans Know A Person Dependent
On Drugs, Survey Finds

• According to a recent study, lawmakers in the
  U.S. states enacted 81 laws that regulated the
  dispensation of controlled substances by doctors,
  pharmacists and patients between 2006 and 2012.
  The majority of these statutes aimed to prevent
  patients from doctor shopping and mandate doctors
  to use tamper-resistant prescription pads to
  prevent fraud. However, the implementation of
  controlled substance laws was not associated to
  the hazardous use of opioids.
• In addition, various state-level monitoring
  programs were also set up to provide data on the
  controlled substances dispensed in the state to
  identify individuals at risk of developing the
  problem of substance abuse and raise a red flag
  on illegal prescriptions. However, the study
  concluded that the adoption of controlled
  substance laws neither reduced the potential risk
  involved due to the use of opioids nor decreased
  overdose rates.

Easy Availability Of Medications And Drug Abuse

• A 2016 survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation
  aimed to take a closer look at the outlooks on
  the health problems in the U.S., especially
  issues related to access to substance abuse
  treatment and mental health services.
  Approximately 44 percent reported that they know
  of someone who has an addiction to painkillers,
  including 26 percent knowing an acquaintance, 21
  percent reporting a close friend and 20 percent
  confirming a family member. In the 2017 survey,
  56 percent of the respondents reported that they
  or someone in their household considered to have
  a pre-existing condition.

Easy Availability Of Medications And Drug Abuse

• According to 2014 National Survey on Drug Use and
  Health (NSDUH), 75 percent of all opioid misuse
  began when people used medication that was not
  prescribed to them. It also stated that 90
  percent of all addictions, regardless of the
  drug, started during the adolescence and young
  adulthood. In addition, 80 percent of heroin
  users reported that they started abusing
  substances with prescription medications,
  suggesting that the drug addiction in the U.S. is
  driven by the access to both prescribed and
  illicit drugs.

Abusing Drugs Is Dangerous

• Even though prescription drugs are advised by a
  doctor, they are by no means safer than drugs
  procured from the streets. The prevalence of drug
  abuse in the U.S. is one of the major public
  health concerns that cannot be solved by punitive
  actions alone, particularly due to the
  mushrooming of drug dealers and increased
  tendency among the users to indulge in doctor
  shopping.
• Sovereign Health understands the plight of
  someone who wishes to quit the abuse of harmful
  substances regardless of the adverse impact on
  their lives. If you or your loved one is
  grappling with the problem of substance abuse, it
  is important to seek professional assistance to
  avoid the aggravation of the related symptoms.
