Prescription drug overdose deaths in Florida increased by 77 percent between 2003 and 2008. According to the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse, prescription drug abuse among children ages 12 to 17 increased 212 percent from 1992 and 2003.
The Florida Department of Health, in collaboration with the Governor’s Office of Drug Control, is actively implementing the legislation passed in 2009 that created a prescription drug-monitoring program. The program was designed to help reduce the amount of deaths from prescription drug overdoses in the state.
