1 Opioids are psychoactive substances derived from the opium poppy, or their synthetic analogues. Examples are morphine and heroin. 2  Worldwide, an estimated 69 000 people die from opioid overdose each year.  There are an estimated 15 million people who suffer from opioid dependence (i.e. an addiction to opioids).
Itâs clear that opioid abuse is an epidemic in our country. In 2014, SAMHSA reported that nearly 2 million Americans had an addiction to prescription painkillers, and another 586,000 were addicted to heroin. Furthermore, the opioid abuse epidemic is behind the increase in overdose deaths. Over 18,000 overdose deaths were related to prescription painkillers in 2014, and over 10,000 were related to heroin. These are not numbers that we like to see.
