1 + Prescription Drug Abuse Beth Cleavenger, Pharm D April 09, 2013
2 + Learning Objectives Identify common prescription drug abuse trends Identify the most commonly abused prescription drugs and drug seeking behaviors Be able to identify how and where to report suspected drug abuse
3 + Prescription Drug Abuse National Institutes of Health Definition Prescription drug abuse is the intentional use of a medication without a prescription; in a way other than as prescribed; or for the experience or feeling it causes.
4 + Background Information National Statistics Prescription drug abuse is now considered to be the second leading cause of death Considered a serious public health crisis The fastest growing drug problem Unintentional drug poisoning and overdose of opioids exceeds cocaine and heroin Only second to motor vehicle deaths Exceeds rates of suicide and homicide
5 + Statistics
6 + Statistics
7 + Statistics
8 + Statistics Prescription drugs are the 2nd most abused category of drugs in US after Marijuana 70% of people who use pain relievers for non-medical use got the drug from friends or relatives for free 18% reported getting the drug from one doctor 5% got them from a drug dealer <0.5% from the Internet
9 + Statistics
10 + Misused Medications Medications used to treat pain OxyContin (oxycodone) Vicodin (hydrocodone) Medications used for ADHD Ritalin (methylphenidate) Adderall (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) Medications used to treat anxiety Xanax (alprazolam) Valium (diazepam)
11 + Misused Medications Tramadol Centrally acting analgesic for moderate to severe pain Acts as an opioid To control or not control? Abuse potential PIMC treats as a C-IV medication State of AZ does not treat as a controlled medication
12 + Prescription Drug Abuse Among Native Americans Not a lot of specific data available Native Americans and Caucasians are at a greater risk for overdosing on prescription pain medications 1 in 10 Native Americans report using prescription pain medications for non-medical purposes, compared to 1 in 20 Caucasians, and 1 in 30 African Americans CDC believes these numbers may actually be underestimation
13 + Prescription Drug Abuse Among Native Americans Various abuse patterns among different reservations Methamphetamines Prescription pain medications Marijuana In the news 2011 Minnesota Public News Story Minnesota s two largest reservations, Red Lake and White Earth Ojibwe have declared prescription drug abuse to be public health emergencies number of people treated for prescription drug abuse on the reservations has doubled
14 + Drug Seeking Behaviors Lost or stolen rx s Self dose adjustments Doctor Shopping Forged prescriptions Frequent ER trips Multiple Pharmacies Fails to comply with treatment plans
15 + Drug Seeking Behaviors Shows no interest in alternative therapies Terminates providers Unwilling to disclose medical history or information Avoids medical work-ups
16 + Reversing and Managing this Troubling Trend Get prescription pain medications off the streets Limit the day supply 30 days vs 90 days Drug take-back programs Pain Management agreements-every Patient is at risk! Sets expectations and goals No refills or replacements Pill counts and frequent visits Urine Drug Screenings-Random Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs Varies state-to-state
17 + Reversing and Managing this Troubling Trend Using the AZ Database For pharmacists AND prescribers Medications filled at PIMC are not reported If suspect drug diversion or abuse ask for a search Not all states use the database system Florida-OxyContin Express, No database Montana-Just launched in 2013 Responsible and Safe Prescribing Patient-Provider Communication
18 + Reversing and Managing this Troubling Trend Refer patients to addiction experts Refer patients to pain experts
