Prescription Drug Abuse Is a Growing Problem in Indiana

taken under the supervision of a physician, prescription drugs can be lifesaving, but when abused, they can be as life-threatening as illicit drugs. Prescription drugs are the second most commonly abused category of drugs, less common than marijuana, but more common than cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, and other drugs. 1 The nonmedical or recreational use of prescription medications is a serious public health concern in the United States. Although many prescription drugs have the potential for abuse, some are more often misused than others. The three prescription drug classes that are most commonly abused are: 1. opioids, which are generally prescribed to treat pain (pain relievers), 2. central nervous system (CNS) depressants, used to treat anxiety and sleep disorders (sedatives and tranquilizers), and 3. stimulants, prescribed to treat the sleep disorder narcolepsy, obesity, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). 2 Table 1 shows the three major prescription drug classes that are most often abused and their most common trademark names.
