States more than 100 people die from a drug over-
dose. Among people 25 to 64 years old, drug over-
dose caused more deaths than motor vehicle acci-
dents. 
(2) The CDC reports that more than 38,000 
people in the United States died from a drug over-

deaths were due to unintentional drug overdoses, 
and many could have been prevented. 
(3) Deaths resulting from unintentional drug 
overdoses increased more than 400 percent between 
1980 and 1999, and more than doubled between 
1999 and 2010. 
(4) Ninety-one percent of all unintentional poi-
soning deaths are due to drugs. Since 1999, in the 
United States the population of Non-Hispanic 
Whites and the population of American Indians and 
Alaska Natives have seen the highest rates of unin-
tentional drug poisoning deaths. 
(5) Opioid medications such as oxycodone and 
hydrocodone are involved in 55 percent of all unin-
tentional drug poisoning deaths. 
(6) Between 1999 and 2010, opioid medication 
overdose fatalities increased by more than 400 per-
cent among women and 265 percent among men.
